Sorry, but it's an illegal counterfeit and can't be sold or traded anywhere in the US or in most other countries with strong anti-counterfeiting laws. The serial number isn't valid and Coach never used C pattern fabrics as both the outside and inside. The creed patch also says the bag is made of cowhide, and the last part of the creed makes NO sense at all. Please slice up the fabric and dispose of it. Selling counterfeits in the US is a federal offense.

Thank you Hyacinth for checking for me And clarifying. It’s as I thought as it was an old work associate that bought it for me. I’m not a handbag person so wouldn’t have a clue.
 
Hi Authenticators!
May I please ask this bag to be reviewed? I know that the hangtag for Berkeley Duffle has different look but I wasn't sure about this one.. blurry fonts and really out of proportion.

I think I had to compress the photos to upload. Thank you very much again for your time.

Comments: Does this one look OK? Thanks for looking and giving an opinion on authenticity.

Item: Coach Purse Swagger 27 Embellished Canyon Quilt Satchel Bag 1677-55503
Ebay, seller: Einstein Disguised As Robin Hood
Several comments - So far, if you haven't paid for it, I recommend holding off.

1. I'm not comfortable with the sloppiness of the creed. That stamping has to be one of the sloppiest I've seen in a "newer" style.

2. I'd like to see the made in tag from the bag.

Other opinions are welcome.

I've already paid. However, this is a top rated plus seller which means I have 30 days and I could return it and he pays shipping for it to go back. When I get it I'll take some better pictures including the made in tag and I'll ask again, thank you.

Good Afternoon,
I bought this item as a thank you gift for my sister and it just arrived and I want to share.
Item: Small White Leather Coach Purse approx 6.5"x 9"x 3"
Listing# 182123330
Seller & Site - shopgoodwill.com/item/182123330
It is precreed with just the Coach cartouche inside the kisslock opening on the side the strap eyelets are. I think it is a #9405 Convertible Purse in Ivory from the 1975 catalog
