The pictures aren't adequate for authentication.

I'd like a straight on picture of the creed as well as a picture of the small white label buried somewhere inside the bag, possibly in the inner pocket, lower left corner.
I figured as much, thanks @BeenBurned. I requested the small labels right after the auction ended. Will resubmit when I get them or get the bags. Thanks for taking the time to have a look. Apologies for insufficient request. 🙏

Hello. I bought a Signature Lynn SoHo but I think that it is not authentic and just wanted some confirmation. I believe there should be a ‘coach’ on the front buckle hardware but I have also seen some without it. I think the stitches of the boarder should be all white? It just smells like plastic overall.

If it is not authentic, I would like to get one that is. What should I look out for in an authentic one?

Thank you so much!! 🙏🏼

The bag is authentic. AFAIK, that particular style of soho buckle doesn't have the Coach name on it. When comparing, it needs to be apples to apples -- same style to another of the same style.

For future requests, please read the yellow highlighted post at the top of each page of the thread for the additional info we need regarding source and seller.

It's authentic, from 2007.

I found a similar bag, 11315 that appears to be a larger version of the hobo than your bag. It's not uncommon for smaller styles to either have creeds without serial numbers or even to not have creeds.

Good Morning,

Ítem: Ranch Shoulder Bag
Listing number: unknown
Seller and site: atieri, poshmark
Link: https://poshmark.com/listing/Vintag...-leather-project-bag-67f54e289936d6287aedec2d
Comments: I’ve never seen a word between Coach and bag on the creed. Thank you in advance.
I'm glad you asked. It's authentic. At the time this bag was made, Coach was also making leather beanbag keychains. For some of the bags made around the same time, they accidentally used the creed for those bean bags for purses.

Counterfeiters have also used beanbag creeds so it is a good idea to have any bag with a beanbag creed authenticated.
