Hello! I have a bag for you to look at when you have the time.

Item: Green & Gold Coach Bag
Where purchased or how obtained: estate sale
Comments: measurements are: 14” long at bottom widening to 20” across the top, 11” high (17” with straps), 3 1/2” wide on bottom.

It's genuine.

The scrambled serial number is a common plant mistake from that time period. It's mentioned at least once in the Salearea Coach Guides, the link to that thread is in this Coach Shopping sub forum.I recommend reading the entire thread, and don't worry if some of the older links don't work any more.

Now that ebay is removing the guides they've been hosting for years, those who use those guides have been forced to either save them on their computers or print them. Tonight I found that the Salearea guides (including the Hyacinth/Salearea collaboration ones) have been saved to Salearea's...

Thank you. I frequent the SaleArea guides often and was aware of some known mistakes with serial numbers but couldn’t remember this one and even searched for it. I’ll go back to refresh my memory. Appreciate your help

Hello!

I purchased this Coach Side Pack locally, cleaned it up, and am considering listing it for resale. Would this forum mind authenticating it? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone. I’ve pulled this out of storage. I bought it in the early 2000’s. Was wondering if it’s real and what is its name. Thank you for looking

What a great find! And in what looks like excellent condition, which is unusual for a light color suede bag, and it still has its special hangtag. It was part of a line of mostly Special Edition designs originally called Poppies For Peace that Coach created in connection with the Peace Games, an annual American-Canadian athletic competition which sadly ended in the same year as this one was made, September 2003. Some background on the Games:

Daily Hive | Torontoist

The Torontoist was sold to Daily Hive

This one was called a Soho Floral Suede Small Hobo. Here's Coach's website page from February 2004:



It's a lovely bag. Enjoy it!
