That one is authentic.

But it's missing the shoulder strap!

Hi Authenticators, can someone take a look at this case, please? The seller's measurements make it look larger than the Chunky Case #7193. What style number would it be if the measurements are accurate in the listing and with the brown lining? Date, photo etc available? Thanks for your time!
Item: COACH VINTAGE LEATHER COSMETIC Make-Up BAG CASE Brown
Listing number: 235304041677
Seller: mizarperez
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/235304041677

It looks authentic. I think it could still be that case, unless there was a larger size I don't know about.

I sold one of that style and I listed the measurements as 8" wide x 4.5" high x 1.5" deep at base.

I think her 5" measurement shown in the picture is off because the bottom of the tape measure is about 1/2" below the bottom of the pouch.

What's the significance (if any) of a gold hang tag? The bag is a thrifted 9806, if that matters. I'll be back for authentication when the light is better for photos.

Thank you!

It looks like someone added the more modern (gold) hang tag to the bag. It looks authentic but wouldn't have come with the bag originally.

Good! Then I can move it to a tagless but very special bag. Thank you, BB!

(Meanwhile I searched here on 'gold hangtags.' Good reading!)

There was a period (around 2010) when Coach put several different hangtags on one bag.

Good to know! I just treated myself to a special (to me) bag--a green Station, authenticated here before purchase--so it will get the gold tag.

Thank you, experts!

But the style of bag that the extra hang tag is on (that @CaseyBoston thrifted) isn't one that originally came with that bag (equestrian slim bucket).

Are you not able to get a refund?

I opened a case with Poshmark about the authentication of this bag, and after reviewing the photos and sending in the info that @Hyacinth provided, they just sided with me and approved my refund. I'll be able to get a full refund after sending out the fake bag back to the seller.
