Hi Authenticators - I recently received a number of bags from a family friend that no longer wanted them. She thought this one was originally purchased from a Coach Outlet. Could you verify that it is authentic and what model it is? Thank you!

Hi Authenticators!
Facebook MP find here.
Coach Legacy 9997 in Camel I believe. Made in Costa Rica.

Comments - The "No" font in the creed (especially the N) seems unusual. Also there are spaces in the first 3 digits of serial number.

Thank you!!!!!

Thank you so much for helping out! I was wondering how you knew it was fake so I can look out for the signs in the future as I’m quite keen to buy one!
It's hard to be specific unless there are know versions of authentic bags of the same style and preferably made in the same plant. As I said, the Tabby bags (among others) are very closely faked and I won't give details that might help the counterfeiters improve their fakes.

What I can say is that there are problems with the creed and some hardware problems that vary from authentic versions.
 
Hi again! So I've been searching for a bottle green vintage Coach and the couple I think I posted here ended up getting sold before I could grab them. I jumped the gun on this one but was hoping to get verification that its authentic: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2357265127...Zxx4L6TSMS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Was also contemplating this bag as well: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2356113722...ESRPDN&hash=item36db883aea:g:abMAAOSw3bBmb6jO

Both by Ebay an seller who seems to have a lot vintage coach: kanameya-tokyo

Thank you! :)

Both of the bags you've asked about are authentic.
 
Good Afternoon Authenticators!

My first vintage slg has arrived!

Item: City Fob in Mahogany
Where: Purchased online at Poshmark
Seller ID: armstacksbynaty
Comments: This has a one sided hangtag, does this mean it’s pre-94?

Thanks for your time!

I think it looks good. The style was introduced in 1996. I can't remember if the hangtags were one sided or if yours just came unglued.
 
Hello can you please help authenticate this bag? There are no additional tags inside the lining of this bag.

Aprx. 11x8x4.5”
