Comments: Hello authenticators! It’s been while, hope you’re all well ❤️ This bag belongs to a friend; there’s not a sales link, but hopefully the photos provided will suffice. My concerns are the turnlock hardware and the creed stamp/font, but another opinion would be appreciated. Thank you for your time!

You’re correct about being concerned. It’s fake.

That's probably because the stamped number inside is not a style number. It's a randomly generated serial/registration number. Please read the the Salearea Guides posted in this thread for more details:

It's genuine and probably from the early to mid-1980s. We need measurements for a complete identification and authentication, please read the READ ME post at the top of each page in this thread for the information we require.
Hi, thank you! The measurements are 9.75"Wx 8.75"H x 4.25"D
 
Good afternoon dear authenticators! A request to authenticate please. Thank you!!!

Item: Twilly
Where purchased or how obtained: thrift store
Comments: dimensions are 33" length and about 2 3/4" width.

I found this coach purse at the Salvation Army this week. I'm not able to find any information on this bag or finding similar bags with the style number and want to make sure it's authentic before listing.

Hi, thank you! The measurements are 9.75"Wx 8.75"H x 4.25"D

Thanks! It looks like a style 9170, known at various times as a Classic Shoulder Bag or Classic Pouch, and was made between the late 1970s and 1988. Here's a catalog page from 1986:

Hello Authenticators. I know it’s risky to purchase Coach items from Japan but I am almost confident that this Colebrooke brief is authentic. Grateful if you could authenticate for added measure. It doesn’t include a strap but I’d still find it useful as a case for my laptop. Thanks so much.

Hello from Chile authenticators. I bought this mini bag on instagram. The measurement are 10.5 inches x 6.5 inches. The small handle is 13 inches and the large one is 38.5 inches + 6.5 inches. It has no No inside, but I know some mini bags don't have it, so Im doubtful. Please help me.
