Yay! I finally have something I need authenticated! I'm so excited, got it for $10 at a yard sale, just hoping it's real 'cos I love it!

Item: I don't know! Something cute in British Tan? :)

Under the flap, there's a slip pocket:

(it's the same on the flip-side)

Sooooooo... Is it real? If so, what's the name/year (if known)?
THANKS so much in advance for your help!

Looks like a 1994 Court. I have a few of them. Looks real to me.

Please help me authenticate 2 bags! They were amongst a batch of different purses i bought recently and were listed as Coach bags. I have my doubts primarily b/c the leather is not "scratchable". I have never come across a real leather bag that wasn't scratchable.

1) Fletcher from Soho Lightweight Collection 1994 (Its in the 1994 Catalog)

2) Style unknown

THANKS

White and light-colored bags that use a different coloring process from more "natural" leathers like tan or even black don't scratch easily. And since the Fletcher doesn't scratch it shouldn't be thought unusual when a genuine white Legacy East Cross-Body Zip doesn't scratch either.

Thanks for the info. So you believe they are both real? Do the Numbers make sense to you?

They both look real to me. And the numbers make perfect sense once you understand what they mean and how to analyze them. Start here:

Thanks for the link. I know the most important things about the numbers. But I am not familiar with the exact years for most styles, especially the newer styles. I would consider the Legacy East a newer style :D I have seen a few fakes where a bag seemed fine but the year wasn't right.

This one's easy - and it's fake. Don't waste your money, and if you can report it to Ebay, please do. The style is fake and the C pattern is wrong. Also Coach wallets made in the last 15 or 20 years will never have stitching at the top edge of the credit card slots.

The pictures aren't great in this listing but it's an authentic wallet to compare to the fake from dachshund_dachshund. It's not the identical style, but a valid comp.

Please report the fake from dachshund_dachshund.

ETA: The seller also has this listing with a fake. The black and white signature clip bag is phony:

Thank you both. I suspected that was the case, and I will definitely report.
