Hi Authenticators! I've purchased these items (I remember that PM is off limits to some of you:sad:), but can someone take a look please?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Item: Coach leather zip top pouch, red
Seller: polliwogp
Link: https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-leather-zip-top-pouch-red-65359b7c9464f3bdc48d312f
What style number would this be if authentic? Is there a catalog photo available?

Item: Coach Mini Wallet
Seller: Faywan
Link: https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m16707748917/
Again, do you have a style number if authentic? A catalog photo?
Both are authentic. The first looks a lot like this one from 2002 but it seems a little bigger7193_Chunky Case-make up cosmetic beauty WayB-3-2003.jpg

The second one appears to be this one. It could be confirmed if you could see the other side of the price tag.

Thank you whateve! Great info and photos. I'm hopeful the tag for the 2nd one will be with it as shown in the photos.

May I have these two thrift store finds checked over please.
I think they are ok but always like to get the Mistresses of the Coach Authentication to take a gander at my finds.

I believe they are Mff Campbell Hobo($10) , minus a hangtag...and a Avery Canvas drawstring ($10) , minus her long strap.
Both from Habitat store
Thank you.

Please have a peek and authenticate. The dimensions on this listing are all over the place - are you able to determine whether it's a Duffle Sac or Helen's?

Thank you for your time!!
It's authentic. I think it is a duffle sac. Helen's wasn't introduced until 1994. I've never seen one with an all numeric creed number.

I think they are fine. More opinions are welcome.
 
Hi Authenticators, can you please take a look at these tie cases and share your thoughts? The brown case in the first link seems to have a faux leather type interior but not the piece of leather sewn on the spine.

The black case in the second link seems to have a fabric lining and a piece of leather sewn to the exterior spine.
Thank you!

FIRST item - name, style number, year and maybe a catalog photo available please?
Item: Coach Vintage Leather Tie Case Jewelry Holder Travel Clutch Long Luggage 16in
Listing number: 256187069469
Seller: rexumus
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/256187069469

SECOND item - This looks like style 7229 based on a catalog photo posted in another seller's listing. Year?
Item: Vintage Coach Black Leather Tie Case Zip Around Travel Case
Listing number: 334997760289
Seller: dsbfamilysales
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/334997760289

I'm not comfortable with and don't recommend the first one from rexumus. Other opinions are welcome.

The second one looks good.

Thanks for your input BB. Is it the interior lining that is questionable? Or some of the exterior?
I've found several other listings - active and sold - with the same faux leather interior. Can you comment on any of them please?
Thank you!

Thank you for doing the research.

I do believe all are authentic however the one from jcp_2709_5 has an error that could be a problem in the event of a resale.

Thanks again for your review and comments, BB.
I hadn't noticed the error until you pointed it out. Certainly a potential resale issue!
When you stated all are authentic, I assume you were referring to the active and the sold linked items, correct?
 
Hi! New here. Purchased this cute Coach Casino for myself. (Note one leather piece that covers the strap end is detached-not omitted or missing). There was no hang tag. Hoping this is authentic. TIA!
