Hello! I’m eyeing this black Court bag as my first vintage Coach and I would really appreciate it if someone could confirm if it is authentic! I don’t see any obvious issues, although I can’t tell if the discoloration on the turnlock is green or silver - hoping it’s just green.

I was hoping for a bag with the original hangtag but the seller did offer a replacement hangtag - is it possible to tell if this is authentic as well based on the one photo?

The bag is authentic. The hangtag looks okay.

Hi Authenticators! This is a PM listing which I know is problematic for some, but can anyone take a look at this cosmetic case? It arrived today and seeing it in person I realize it has some differences from other Medium Cosmetic Case #6988 that I've had. Please authenticate before I accept my order and begin cleaning it up.
Some of the differences I noticed are:
1) The PM case has a black twill type lining instead of the logo lining on the Made in China #6988 cases.
2) The PM case was made in the United States vs those #6988 cases made in China.
3) The COACH stamp on the PM case is further away from the zip top than other #6988s.
4) There is no COACH stamp on the bottom of the PM case, as there is on other #6988 cases.
5) The zipper ring on the PM case is larger than #6988 cases made in China
6) The stitching on the end tabs is further from the edges on the PM case than other #6988 cases.
7) The hangtag is larger on the PM case than on other #6899s, but I thought the original hang tag had been replaced. Now I wonder - if this is authentic, were the original hang tags larger? (hangtag photo in listing)

Several photos attached that I've taken - some showing the PM case Made in US case vs case Made in China. As always, thank you!

I'm just curious @crazycatlady76 why you'd ask for that. @whateve already authenticated the bag and said the hangtag looks fine too. Why are you questioning it? (When we see a fake hangtag with an authentic bag that we've authenticated, we do state that the tag is fake.) FWIW, I agree that the hangtag looks fine.

The A has a flat top on this side. I just wondered what the other side looks like is all.
