Thank you so much whateve! I am very happy I got an odd one haha!
The dimensions are:

Dimensions: length 29cm(11 4/8 inch)
height 17.5cm(7inch)
depth 7.5cm( 2 7/8 inch
It has a zipped internal pocket and an open large pocket under the flap.
Strap length is about 33 inches long( only the leather part).

I made the assumption is a Convertible Clutch 9635, but I might be wrong. Also, the colour is called bone? I am quite new and would love to learn more really about these amazing bags!

Many thanks.
You're welcome. Sounds like a convertible clutch to me. Looks like bone.

Hello Authenticators,
Will one of you please take a look at this ace satchel? I’ve never seen the zipper attachments not coated and starting to rust…the creed has a line in it and there are some glue residue stains. Maybe a factory second? Thank you so much.

Hi Authenticators! Hope you had a wonderful weekend. Can one of you take a look at this bag? Many thanks!
Item: Vintage Coach Sonoma Double Zip Natural Grain Shoulder Crossbody Bag Purse 4914
Listing number: 334816654999
Seller: sjeep
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/334816654999
The bag arrived and is in nice condition, but......it's Green (Forest? Hunter? Bottle?) not Black as the listing stated. It did look greenish in the photos, but black can do that depending on the photographer and lighting.
Does anyone have a catalog photo of the 1996 bags stating the available colors for the exact green shade?
Thank you!

ETA: maybe I posted this in the wrong thread?

Comments: not often I see a vintage coach bag with feet! I am considering buying this to clean up and send as a gift to my aunt but want to authenticate before buying of course:smile:
 
I can't do pictures right now but below the creed does coach bag ever say "made in italy." In between creed and serial number?
And the serial number is 3214 605. I bought it from salvation army. :sad:

We'll need to wait for photos of the creed and serial number.

Authentic.

I actually prefer them to be separated into separate posts.

I didn't notice the description said black. I assumed it was green. I believe it is ivy.

Hi! I'm curious about if this bag is authentic:

Item: Coach Bucket Bag Vintage New York W/ Storage Bag
Listing number: 394554153553
Seller and site where listed: Ebay, danlabr24
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/394554153553
Comments: the hang tag is ... interesting. certainly not from the (supposed) time period of the bag at the very least, but wondering about the actual bag itself

thanks in advance!!!
Authentic duffle sac. The hangtag looks fake.
