J8Y- should always be a concern. Not only have I seen several fakes with that number (there's at least one currently listed) but there's one small detail on the red bag that worries me a bit. I'd have to call it Questionable or just say I can't be 100 percent sure about it.

The second one's ok.

The Court Bag may not be real. The serial number looks way off, the stamping isn't right and the digits are too close together and seem to overlap which shouldn't have been possible with Coach's old stamping system. The hardware looks off too especially the D rings on the strap.

Thank you, Hyacinth!!

Hi ladies. ..This is a bag that you previously authenticated, but the butter is concerned about the Creef being off center. If you wouldn't mind looking at this again. .. I'm going to send her this link for her piece of mind. TIA

Hoping someone stops by that might be able to tell the difference between the authentic and fake version of this bag..I'll post more pictures if needed. Thanks

Please post a clear and straight on picture of the creed without the leather strip covering it. If you can get a clear picture of the text without the glare of the flash, that would help. Also, please post a picture of the trigger clip.

I don't see any problems. As I even said in a previous post here today, some bags had mistakes. Coaches were NOT perfect.

As I think BeenBurned mentioned, the creed details on the fakes are usually frighteningly close to the real ones but there are always a few tiny mistakes. I don't have pics of that exact bag but I have some creed pics of the genuine 10125 which is a different size version of the same bag, so I'm posting them for comparison below. The spacing of the serial prefixes is slightly different but the tiny details in the creed letters seem ok.

Based on the creeds and the color of the brass Legacy charm my feeling is that it's probably genuine.

I really hope I'm wrong but here's my concern and the reason why I'd like to see a crystal clear without glare photo of the creed.

In the following side-by-side with godscardinal's picture on the left, compare the following letters:
1. the "e" in superior
2. the loop at the bottom of "f" in finest (appears closed on pink one; open on khaki)
3. "en" in attention
4. "ment" in commitment

Some of the differences might be a result of the focus and/or lighting, which is why I'd like to see another picture.

BB - does it matter that the creed patch on the pink one has more space on the edges of the patch around the printed area? The numbers are also much closer together.

Since the bags are different styles, 10124 and 10125, that could account for the differences in the spacing. (Hyacinth mentioned spacing differences too, though I think her comment was in reference to the serial number.)

My concern is with the seeming "squished together" look of some of the text and the fact that some of the letters with loops don't seem to have as big a loop as they should.

But again, it could be a picture quality issue rather than an authenticity issue.

Hope these help..a pic of creed without flash and a pic of clip on a white background.
I want to thank everyone here for all you do! I really appreciate your help.

Hi, pls help to authenticate this bag I have won from ebay:

Item Name: COACH ASHLEY PATENT LEATHER GREEN SATCHEL PURSE
Seller: spacelady131
Item ID: 300882933607

Link: http://www.ebay.com.sg/itm/30088293...WNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_500wt_975

Comments: The Date Code / Style No. printed on Coach Creed : Is that a unique number allocated for each individual bag or each design. Does E1269 mean date of production was on May 2012 ? What does 69 stand for ?

TIA !
