Hi guys,

I've stumbled across this bag on a Polish auction site. The girls at the "Authenticate this Coach" thread have confirmed its authenticity - it's sth from 2002 or so. Is there anybody who has this bag? What's it called? The creed no. is 6238.

Thanks in advance!

Anna

Can someone authenticate this Coach?

EVERYTHING points to authentic but the last four digits. It seems they belong to the Lexington drawstring bucket bag.

I know the Lexington line was mostly made in italy and they made mistakes with the creed and they also made mistakes in the USA.

Thanks

That J8Y- prefix is also often found in apparent fakes just like half a dozen other code sets starting with "J". They're often very hard to authenticate without another bag with the same style number and codes for comparison.

Yours looks more like a Lexington Bucket 4181. The quality of the seams and stitching of the lining is a concern, and so is the lining itself. Compare it to this listing for a 4181 with a Made In Italy creed, not just the quality and of the lining's stitching but even something as basic as the lining itself. We've seen variations in the lining before but it's always a problem when one bag has the Coach logo lining and another one made supposedly just a few months apart doesn't.

There's nothing either way that proves whether it's real or not but there are things that make it questionable. They are mistakes and differences that could have happened, we just don't know if they actually did.

BTW, in the future please post authentication requests in the Authenticate This Coach thread under Coach Shopping. Thanks!

I love this pre 94 bag of mine - but have no idea what it's called, would appreciate any clues to its identity.

I'm stuck without a measuring device, so these are truly approximate measurements: 11" l x 8" h x 2.5" d, Creed details: "Made in the United States" #032-1038

Thanks!:)

Excuse my manners if Iam budding in... But I have a coach bags and everything looks good but i am worried that the creed doesn't state where it was made. Is this okay for it to be authentic? It's a Madison tote
