Where purchased or how obtained: yard sale
Comments: Bag measures a little less than 9 inches across and a little less than 6 inches from bottom to top of bag, not including strap.

Genuine Soho Small Satchel from 1998

Thank you for the research! To me, they're penguins now. I can't see it differently. 3 arms 2 beaks 3 feet at least, I see 2 birds there.

Yep, pairs of penguins. Those soft, probably fat-insulated pudgy feet are for keeping their eggs and hatchlings off the ice. There's no way those birds are going to swoop down on an unsuspecting mouse and snatch it up with those things. For one thing, they'd need wings that actually work.
 
Hi, would appreciate your judgement on this vintage Coach bag. First time on this Forum site, so hope I submitted it well.

Definitely genuine. It looks like the second half of the serial number might be -9893 which means it's from 1994 or newer.

Please check the IMPORTANT - READ ME post at the top of each page in this thread which lists the posting requirements. If it's currently listed for sale on the internet, we need the link, name of the seller, measurements, etc, and there is other required information.

Any time there's a READ ME post in these forums, it's important.

Hi Authenticators! Can someone authenticate this late night impulse purchase of mine from the listing photos? I still should have time to cancel (and/or can return) via poshmark if not. It was a weak moment because they sent me an offer (rolling eyes at myself of course); on second look the creed is a bit faded in her picture, and now having seen several fakes on here in a search, I wonder.

Thank you for any help!

Item: " Vtg 90s Coach Legacy Sm Shopper Slim Bucket 9086 Leather Black"
Listing number: Poshmark, no listing number easily found
Seller: @bagmeister

Just wanted to add an updated creed photo that the seller just sent to me--I looked her up on here and she seems to have sold authentics in the past, so I'm hopefull there. This creed is not very well defined, but seems to me to indicate it was made in 1998 or 1999 if I'm not mistaken. I'd darken it in photoshop, but my apps are not working properly--still thought it could be of help to have another picture.

The year code looks like 1998. It's a genuine Legacy Small Shopper, there is no "Slim Bucket" in the name.
