Comment: something off about the creed on this one. "It is hand made" in the legend instead of "It was handcrafted" etc.
If it's authentic, someone should snap this up!

It's the Madison "Gracie" and if I needed even one more bag - I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
Some of the Italian creeds just don't make sense.
Not a problem. Anyway, handmade and handcrafted mean the same thing. Coach often made slight changes to the wording of the creeds and are still doing it. ALL the Madisons are handmade or handcrafted, and with the change of position in the creed of the country of origin they probably made other changes too. In fact here's a 1995 Gracie

and a 1994 Chapin

BTW, I don't think that's actually a red bag. Seller says brown and the creed looks reddish-brown so it might be Maple. OR it may even be an early 1995 bag - note the "didn't get the memo" plant code - and it may even be Tangerine. If anyone's interested they really need to have the seller clarify what color it really is.
I bought this off the bay listed as a coach city bag with out tagsC
Leather doesnot feel as thick as Excpecyed. Creed says made in USA

Wait for other opinions, but it looks fine to me.
Made in 1994.
Did you notice the N for the month?It's the Madison "Gracie" and if I needed even one more bag - I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

OMG I have been wanting one of those forever! Good thing they only ship within US otherwise I would be in trouble
That's what bothered me the most! The N seemed incorrect for the year, and the border on the creed looked too rounded, as well.
Thanks,DemRam! Makes me feel better! Surprised that Coach still made bags in the US in 1994! Were they inferior in quality compared to the 1970s ones?Wait for other opinions, but it looks fine to me.
