Oh. .. Sorry. ..Just trying to show the info. ..I picked one of these for a coworker for less than 100 a couple of months ago
Hi hope Im doing this in the right place. I picked this bag up today and when I got home and looked up the style number, I cant find anything except a sort of modern wool and leather coach bag. This bag clearly has age. I dont doubt its authenticity It is heavy and very similar to another vintage coach I have. But, why cant i find the 8139 number anywhere when researching? The style that I found that is exactly like it is a Bonnie Cashin bag/wristlet.... Note the large zipper pull/wristlet strap. I got this at a consignment shop and I took the pics. let me know if you need anything else. I hope I am not wrong about the authenticity.. even though it is really old, there are no giant flaws on it. The zipper is YKK and the bag is 11x6.5x2". Thanks ladies!

It is authentic. Bags made before 1994 have unique serial numbers. The style number is not on the creed. It is a basic bag #9455. It was probably made around 1980. To learn more about Coach creeds, check out these guides. http://search.reviews.ebay.com/members/salearea_W0QQcpnameZmembersQQprZsaleareaQQuqtZg
I found this at a local thrift - the only marking is the Coach lozenge on the exterior under the flap, and there is an outlet bullseye on the interior, but no creed. I apologize for the awful picture of the lozenge, if it's necessary I can take more. The purse is 7 L x 4.5 H x 1 D. It's a pretty medium/denum blue.
I'm pretty sure it's the Envelope Swing Wallet style 4873 from around 1994-95.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!! I really appreciate it! Now, if I can figure out the answer to the gucci question I posted... I cant tell if the answer that came via email is for my bag...or the one posted just before mine.. I am a newbie
Thanks again!!!
You're welcome! I never did get my Gucci question answered in the Gucci forum. Good luck!
LOL! I know this is OT for the Coach forum but I'm going to explain.
Once you post and subscribe to the thread, every time someone posts, you'll get an email. The response you thought might have been for you was a post someone else made after you'd posted. If you get emails, go to read starting where you left off and generally, when they authenticate, they'll quote your post so you know that they've responded to you.
Here's the response to your post: #1462 - http://forum.purseblog.com/gucci/authenticate-gucci-read-rules-use-format-posts-1-a-802512-98.html
A male friend from NYC asked if I could possibly help him identify & date this vintage Coach wallet that he found hidden inside a mid-century desk that he purchased recently.
It has no obvious clues for me, any thoughts or clues from the experts would be much appreciated!

Ooh...mysterious. Did it have any money in it?
Sadly, no, not even Don Draper's paystub
I can't find a catalog picture exactly like this one. There was a similar style in the 90's called a Breast Pocket Secretary.
Can someone tell me what the name of this bag is?

I have seen it referred to as a tie dye demi, but I don't know the official name.
