Tell me what it says on the creed...is it G0D-9135? I can't quite make it out. Does it also have "Coach" stamped into the hardware?

Style 9135 is the "Small Hippie Flap" and that one would have been made in 2000.

:smile1:
The creed reads:
This is a Coach Handbag, it was handcrafted in the United States of completely natural glove-tanned cowhide. The variations in the the grain are characteristic of natural full grain leather.
The number does read GOD-9135

The wording is correct on the creed, so from what I can see, I would think it's an authentic "Small Hippie Flap" from 2000.

It should have the word "Coach" stamped on the strap buckle also.

Please forgive if I have posted this in the wrong thread. I rescued a vintage Coach bag from my Mom's yard sale. She bought this bag at a thrift shop years ago and sure she paid around 2$. Last week she was willing to part with it for a buck!!! I took it home but am having one h*ll of a time identifying this bag. The best I can come up with is that it is Pre-1970. (it has the original creed stamped in the "pouch", see pic attached) All in all it is not in bad shape, some wear on strap and around the "tongue" closure. Brass hardware is in great condition and still has the original hang tag. Does anyone know what "her" name is?? Any real value? Thinking of having Coach restore this bag, but don't want to invest if she isn't worth the money. TIA for any help.

I think it's a "Courier Pouch" shown below. The "creed", without serial numbers, would probably date it to the mid to later 1970's.

I'm not sure that Coach does any refurbishing of bags, but there are buyers who are interested in purchasing a good "old" bag and bringing it back to life.

It's also Made In New York City which is the original Coach factory.

Thank you so much for your help! Much appreciated. In an earlier thread I saw this info from Margo "Coach introduced the creed without any serial # sometime in the late 60's/early70s." Is this not correct??

My understanding is that is NOT true. I can only go by the information I have from the bags I personally own.

I've had quite a few bags authenticated by the Bonnie Cashin Foundation. Coach used other "marks" during that time frame. (1962-1974)

One of my authenticated bags is from 1967 - NO creed.
Another authenticated bag is from 1975 - NO creed.

Hi Ladies,

Can you please help me identify the style of the bag in this photo:

My friend just got it at a consignment store and I like it so much I thought I'd look for one for myself.

Thanks!
