Authenticate vintage Coach doctor satchel?

I agree, needs a better pic of creed - could a creed start with something that looks like O25? And is "Made in USA" OK - I see a more "Made in United States"

Thx!

Those pictures are really terrible. Some of these sellers make me want to scream!

It looks like one of the many, many Satchel style bags that Coach has made over the years, but I don't know the exact name. It also looks in pretty rough shape.

That 7 digit serial number is from the late 70's through mid 80's. Made in U.S.A. is fine.

Thanks! I love cleaning up old bags (that can be salvaged) so if something is cheap and authentic I can deal with rough.

I just love the NYC made ones, but USA is fine too. Wonder where they moved the factory after New York?

China, Domincan Republic, Costa Rica, Turkey, Viet Nam, India --- and a host of other countries to which companies outsource their manufacturing.

Comments: I don't remember there being a purple patent spotlight in the smaller size. I'm almost certain this is fake, but it's so strikingly real I thought I'd have it authenticated just to make sure. Thanks for your help!

The hangtags are fake. As for the rest of the bag, I'm seeing a few details that concern me, but need to see more pics to confirm. I'd like to see a closeup picture of the creed, a closeup of the logo on the front, closeup of the Coach stamp on the zipper pulls, and a picture of the lining, and a closeup of the stitching, especially around the rivets.
 
Can some one tell me if this is real, it looks off to me because of the creed. All her listings look suspect.

This listing is fine as are the other Coach items and the Dooney that the seller has. (I don't know MK but I'm not aware of the line being faked.)

Why are you suspicious of them? I don't see any red flags that would have me questioning anything.

I agree with BB. The bag is fine. I don't see any problems with the seller's other Coach bags.
 

It's fine.

Welcome to tPF! In the future, please use the format in Post #1 as this helps make it easier to search for items and sellers. Thanks!
