Please could this be authenticated , thank you so much 🧡

Seller said has already on here previously and advised slight error was made on the reference stamping but authentic and I have no reason to doubt this but just want to double check as been caught out before sadly.

Feels different to my other , older coach bags is that due to difference in leather likely this being less ‘ vintage ‘ ?

Item ~ vintage coach station bag
Etsy UK~ https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/181...how_sold_out_detail=1&ref=nla_listing_details

Thank you ☺️

The bag is authentic.

The error referred to is that the prefix (first part) of the serial number has the characters transposed.

It should be B0Z for February 2000 but they transposed the month and year codes. Legitimate Coach-made errors like that are more likely to be seen on bags from factories outside the US although US plants also made mistakes.

It's always a good idea to verify authenticity anyway because counterfeiters copy or make their own mistakes and you don't want a fake.

Thank you as always.

Ok pretty confident this one is authentic but figured I'd make sure before I head over to the rehab thread for suggestions. Twin clutch #9380 in Bone, likely from 1985 when I triangulate the style with the color in the old catalogues (I’ve been absolutely pouring over them the past few days!!). Lucky thrift store find a few years ago that I’m just circling back to. It feels almost like a nubuck surface— it’s very slightly… velvety?

If there's anything that doesn't follow the posting rules please tell me and I can edit? I'm genuinely looking for help thank you so much!! If three is too much for one comment, you can go ahead and just authenticate the first two!!

It's authentic. If it is feeling velvety the surface of the leather has probably worn off. When you apply conditioner it is likely to darken.
