Hi everyone! I am brand new and I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I found this thread via Google.

So, I've never been really into purses. But last year, I was at a consignment shop and found a really great leather purse for $20. It was the perfect size for me (at the time), so I bought it and left. It looked vintage-y and I loved it.

When I got home, I noticed that the paper price tag the shop had affixed to the strap said that this was a Coach bag. Wow, I'd thought. I'd heard of Coach, but knew nothing about them other than that I don't really like their new fancy bags with the C's all over them. I wore the bag for a year and never questioned whether or not it was actually a Coach.

I grew to love the bag, and found myself wanting to buy a similar bag that's just slightly larger. After researching a Coach bag on EBay (so I could determine HOW to look up a similar bag), I realized that my "Coach" purse has no creed or stamp inside. It's a great bag, but now I'm doubting its authenticity. And even if it IS authentic, I have no idea what the style name would be. I've found a lot of similar-but-not-exact styles on eBay.

Can anyone help? I'm posting from an iPad, so I will attach pics in my next post in a minute or two.

Thanks! :)

The style is similar to a Coach companion flap if the measurements are about 8 by 8 inches. However, an authentic companion flap has a creed. I suspect that yours is a copy of a Coach design. If it doesn't say Coach anywhere on the bag, it probably isn't a Coach.

That's about the right measurement. Thanks. I wasn't sure if there were any versions created without the creed and perhaps only a hang tag (which may have gotten lost, in my case). Either way, you're right -- the Companion Flap is identical, so thanks for the tip to start my research. :)

The earliest Coach bags didn't have a creed, just a metal plate on the inside with the word Coach on it or the word Coach embossed into the leather. However, this style isn't one of those early ones. As far as I know, this style wasn't made until the 90's.

Here is some information about creeds.

I hope someone can help me with this...and if it's been asked before I apologize because I couldn't find an answer. What is the difference between style 9060 and 9816? I could kick myself for getting rid of my black purse (#9060). Thanks for any assistance.

There is no problem with posting a link to an auction you are interested in or have won. You just can't post a link to an item that you are selling.

Authentication requests should be posted in the Authenticate This thread in the shopping section.

This purse is a made for factory Hamptons Leather Satchel from 2009. The leather is pebbled.

Can anyone id this? It isnt my auction, but I picked up an identical one at Savers today. I am a sucker for suede bags, but this thing is so tiny! I cant figure out what it would be used for. Too small to be a shoulder bag, and too impractical for make up with suede, and the strap doesnt function well for a wristlet.

I think these were just called top handle pouches. Coach made this style in a bunch of materials. My daughter has a nylon one with a wipe-clean lining that works great as a make-up bag, but I think they were originally designed to be used as a small purse.

Coach Musette?
I'm not too worried about her authenticity, but just confirming that it is the Musette I've been longing for!
The dimensions are about 16"H x 11.5W x 5"D and Strap drop at longest is about 16"
