Hi Authenticators! Happy New Year!
Are there enough listing photos to authenticate this little coin purse? Would it be style #4737? If not, do you have a style number and year if authentic? A catalog photo? Thank you!

Item: Black Leather Coach Key chain Coin Holder
Item: 176132274649
Seller: Kellys Fashion For Less
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/176132274649
I had one of the same items and was unable to find the style number. I can't find what 4737 is so I don't know if that might be correct.

My records called it Bedford mini skinny from approx. 2001-02.

Thank you for taking a look at the listing. @whateve didn't have a catalog photo of a #4737 she ID'd recently in the ID thread, but she did share this tag photo. Attached.

Hi there! (longtime lurker, first time poster)
Can anyone help me authenticate this red soho tote bag?
Purchased on Ebay from seller "chatran" (have seen mixed info regarding their reputation, was not wise enough to search here before purchasing)

These are the photos from the ebay listing, but can supply more if requested/helpful! The creed is pretty faded. Claims to be made in the United States, Serial # F6H-4082

Thank you! :smile:

It's a genuine Soho Bag from what had been the Lightweight line, which had become the Soho line several years earlier. So I suppose it should actually be called a Soho Soho, but that would have been too weird even for Coach. It was made in 1996.
 
Hi Authenticators,

I've fallen through the rabbit hole of vintage coach and I'm interested in the following styles of bags. Can you please determine if the following bags are authentic.

Item: Court 9870
Listing number: t1119283521
Seller and site where listed: Yahoo Auctions Japan / zpqcl13580
Link: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/t1119283521
Comments: The strap isn't adjustable (which I've heard that 90's Courts should be) so I'm not sure if this is fake or if it's just a replacement strap with the bag

Item: Pocket Purse
Listing number: m35014126279
Seller and site where listed: Mecari Japan / しゅん
Link: https://jp.mercari.com/item/m35014126279

Item: Legacy Zip 9966
Listing number: m61768520992
Seller and site where listed: Mecari Japan / かんな
Link: https://jp.mercari.com/item/m61768520992

Thank you!
 
Hello!

Would you please have a look at this Hippie Flap? I thought the creed / number looked okay, but the zipper and state of the strap (maybe that happens with real leather—I just don’t know) have me second guessing myself. Is this a fake or a legit bag with a sad, failed zipper repair & strap needing TLC? I defer to your expertise. Thanks :)

Item: Hippie Flap C2P-9134
Link:https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintage-black-leather-crossbody-Coach-Bag-63a74f3e308f07a336d594d8
Seller: sharihb on Poshmark

Adding here my own photos of the creed, ugly zipper, and struggling strap

Coach used 48-inch ADJUSTABLE straps on Court Bags beginning in 1997. Before 1997 the strap was shorter and not adjustable. The Court Bag is genuine.

Another authenticator will have to look at the Mercari listings.
