We would have to see other photos in order to authenticate. The first digit of the creed is a "J." It is a valid style number for a sequin Hailey, like this.

i did another post and the pics showed up
Please n thanks
=)

Hello Again sorry not doing very well with the cellphone thought I'd try computer to get photos up.

Item: Coach bag (she has it labeled as "authentic Coach Madison Graphic Op Art Sequins Sophia Satchel 19179)

the picture she has of creed is showing 19182 as the style number

Please help me authenticate this bag.

I did google 19182 and found a match on photo bucket but it is the only similar bag I've found

Thanks so much
Jen

It's authentic.

I really appreciate your time and value the fact you are all here and so quick to help! Kudos!!

I don't see any problems with #1 or any of the others either. Ideally, a picture of the creed for #1 would confirm but at this point, there's nothing that indicates that it's not authentic.

Seller of bag #1 has sent me a photo of the creed: http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODk5WDE2MDA=/z/uN0AAOSwFnFWCKrv/$_10.JPG?set_id=2

That looks good to me, could you take a look BeenBurned? Thank you so much

* seller put name of item as Brown but the color I see is blue?? Is this bag re-dyed? Because if it is, I'm not interested in any re-dyed leather bag.

Thanks so much for helping me. [emoji4]

#1 might be okay but I'm not seeing a label in any of the pictures.
#2 is authentic. It is really blue and they made this color. The seller just made a mistake in the title. It says blue lower down in the listing. I own this bag.

Hi, seller provided me with 2 more pics for item #1



Seller also mentioned all 4 rivets has large CAP B on the outside. I am not sure I understand what she meant by that? [emoji15]

Thanks a lot for your help again

I think it means the hinges have a B on them like this

I'll let Whateve comment on authenticity, but the nonsense about the capital B on the hinges is exactly that - nonsense. Some useless "authenticity guides" on Bonnie Cashin bags posted a false claim that the B stood for Bonnie, but it doesn't, and it doesn't prove it's a genuine Cashin item. The B is the trademark of the manufacturer "Branson" which makes some of the hinges.

It's authentic. As Hyacinth said, the Bs on the hinges have nothing to do with Bonnie Cashin. It is just a coincidence.

Thanks! Hehe this will b my 2nd bag from Bonnie Cashin [emoji7][emoji7] I'm soooo happy. Thank you so much for your input and time. Really appreciate it

Neither the Plaza bag nor the Willis are going to be bigger than a stewardess. Have you considered a Sonoma, Dakota, or Sheridan? These will be more waterproof and damage-proof than glove-tanned leather.

Thanks so much, whateve! I'm going to think over what I really want out of this new-to-me bag with your recommendations in mind. Thanks again!

I'm curious about a Sonoma drawstring bag, style 4931.

Every other listing I've found (on ebay) shows striped lining.

Is this bag authentic? It has solid lining and a different border on the creed and the font doesn't look quite like I expect from the H plant.

Listia seller - Cashmere17
Item - sonoma drawstring bag, 4931
Title: FAB. RARE VINTAGE AUTHENTIC COACH PINK SUEDE LEATHER BUCKET HANDBAG WITH DRAWSTRING #B5H-4931
https://www.listia.com/auction/26580074-fab-rare-vintage-authentic-coach-pink

In the following, I've shown this creed as compared with others of the same style (dfferent plants) as well as this creed compared to another from the same year and plant (but different month and style).

This is more of a curiosity/learning question for my own educational purposes. I don't believe that the Listia bag is authentic.)

Thanks!
