Could someone please authenticate this Coach Leatherware bag?
From GW…it was a blizzard of Coach bags in the general purse dept. yesterday…I got the best two!
Approx. 10.5"w x 7"h x 2.75"d. Strap 22 to buckles.
1994 Mitchell Zip #9938, yes?
Thanks in advance!

And this one?
I rehabbed one of these for a friend a while back…always wanted one for myself!
Approx. 11"w x 8"h x 4"d. Strap 19.5" to buckles.
1996 Patricia's Legacy #9951, right?
Thanks, again :)

Yes, and yes. They both look good.
 
Thanks for checking. I'm a little surprised and disappointed they'd produce a bag that looks this bad, though. And it doesn't even have an outlet or irregular stamp on it or anything! Strange.

Does anyone know what this color green was called?

I'm not sure if I'm seeing this correctly, but could that be a bullseye stamp just to the left of the C in Coach?

I think the color could be Bottle Green.

Thrift store jackpot! Could you please authenticate these 3 goodies and help me ID the first one? Thank you!

Item: ??

Dimensions: about 9 x 8 x 2
Comments: A precursor to the slim duffle? It’s smaller than my 90’s 9816 though and no legacy strap.

The only green color for Fall 1998 was Loden. Both the 1998 New Collections and the 1998 Holiday Preview catalogs confirm it. The color chart you posted is from 1995.

ETA - Ignore previous answer - there was a Bucket Bag Small made around 1990-91, style 4070. Measurements are listed as 9x8x4
