I saw the listing from lindsrafferty and it's not "Coach LIKE." It's a counterfeit (and ILLEGAL) Coach bag with a well-known invalid serial number on the creed. If lindsrafferty is honorable, she'll end the listing and not sell the bag. In fact, she should return it to

luva12 who sold her the fake in a listing that claimed she'd purchased in NYC from an "outlet." That outlet must have been on Canal Street!​

I'm reposting the listing as it's a good educational example for those wanting to learn about Coach.

Genuine Tribeca Shopper made in late 1997

Thank you Hyacinth, really appreciate it.

Thank you! I got it for $40 do you think I got a decent deal? I wasn’t able to look up what this one was called… It sort of reminds me of a bigger version of the Waverly tote

That's a good price. We can identify it if you give us measurements. It looks to be from the same collection as Waverly, the Lightweights collection.

Is this Coach authentic? I got it at a yard sale today! Thanks!

If I may, giving me a Monterey Hobo vibe from the bottom panel and strap detail. A nice controlled black hole!

It's a genuine Ergo Pocket Zip style 9033 and was made in 1997. Here's a Coach catalog page from that year:

Hi Authenticators - a listing I'd appreciate you taking a look at. If authentic, do you have a style name/ number, photo, etc to share? There is no "Made In" marking as I've noticed on some similar pieces. Would that affect the authenticity?
Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge!

It may be a Saddle Pouch, these photos are from the Fall 1985 Coach Catalog. The bag came in 2 sizes and several colors, nice find!

One of the first vintage coach bags that I worked on was a Standard Size Saddle Bag 9590. It was in rough shape but I learned a lot from rehabbing that bag! See link below:
