Can this be looked at ?? GW purchase. Also any info about the style, if known. Thanks.

I'm not seeing any problems but there isn't a lot to check. It was made around 2012 as part of the Legacy collection.

Thank you. It’s seems ok from the feel and looks but wanted another option. It was only a couple of dollas, so thought I’d take a chance.

I think it's fine too.

It looks good. I think it is a school bag clutch #9515, probably made in the early 70s.

By Jove, I think it MIGHT be genuine, but that's just my gut feeling.

Except for a scattering of travel bags, every creed with a G plant code newer than mid-1990s has been either fake, usually with fake "Made in the United States" creeds but fake details,hardware, JIG- prefix using the letter "i", not a number One) serial numbers, etc; or questionable. The G hasn't appeared in any kind of genuine Coach handbag since.

But several details seem to feel right even though I can't find any similar styles or even any G plant codes from Spain in my files. (Coach DID make accessories in Spain but none I've seen so far had creeds) Turnlock details, accuracy of the creed, and the general details of the bag itself seem to fit Coaches of the period. Again, that's NOT an authentication because it's just a feeling and can't be confirmed. Do NOT buy it to resell it, because there's no way you can prove it's real. Anyone interested in it should buy it for their own personal use ONLY. I'm calling it Questionable for now.

Here are several photos of the bag in question:





MORE OPINIONS ARE WELCOME, even if it IS on Poshmark. And if anyone has any genuine Made in Spain creeds, I'd love to see them.

I saw the bag in question and agree that it's probably okay but also agree that we can't say that with 100% certainty.

I do have pictures of another "Spain" creed in my records. It's from style 7877, a cosmetic case and didn't have a serial number.



ETA: I found the tag for the above item and it was called "Polished calf medium cosmetic." I'm guessing it, too is from 2000-01-ish.
