That's fantastic information, I can't thank you enough!

I was looking for info on different types of snakeskin on another forum and I was told by 2 different people that Coach never use genuine exotic skins for their bags; but I don't think that is always true. The creed said that this bag is made of "genuine snake" so I think that it is real snakeskin, isn't that correct?

Here is another helpful link I found. The name I first gave you is right, so now that I think about it, it may not have been completely part of the resort collection, I'm just not sure because some of them were called Parker and some not. But I'm almost positive it came out March 2009, I narrowed the Parker line to that on wayback machine for that year, and with the so closely related resort python, it just makes sense.

This is great, and it says that it is made of karung snakeskin and the retail price was $1100!

I found another article that calls it the shoulder flap and it has the same pic, and it also mentions karung snakeskin.

I sure will, and thank you for being such a great detective!

I sure will, and thank you for being such a great detective!

Of course! Have had plenty of practice doing it for myself, and it always seems to be between 2005-09, that is hard to figure out, at least for me. I'm glad to help with mystery, it was fun! Can't to see the reveal!

Those people are wrong.

Coach definitely used snakeskin for some of its items, as evidenced by your bag and the wallets that I had.

Here's an example of the 6A10 wallet.

And they've also used python.

That's a gorgeous wallet!

Coach hasn't made very many exotic bags in the last few years, but they still produce some. The genuine exotic Haleys in this post were seen at Harrod's a couple of months ago.

I won this bag on an online charity auction site and Beenburned has confirmed that it is genuine, but neither of us could find out any information about it! I haven't received it yet but I am dying to get my hands on it!

In the meantime I am posting the auction pictures here in the hope that one of my fellow TPFers knows some information about the bag.

The style number is 13417 and it was made in Italy in 2008. I'm pretty sure that it comes from the Parker line and the nearest thing that I could find on the Coach Wayback Machine is the rosegold leather Parker Small Flap 13462 (see the screenshot below).

I would love to know any information about my new (to me!) bag: the name, color, when it was released, and the original retail price. The creed patch says that it is snake so I have been looking at snakeskin bags online and I think that it is Karung snake, but that is just a guess.

Come on TPFers! Help me to solve this beautiful mystery! (Thanks in advance for your assistance!)

I saw your post on another thread this morning that you had solved the mystery of her name! And I almost slipped out of my chair when I saw the retail price...congratulations on this little beauty. I LOVE the strap!

I know! At $1,100 retail it will be the most valuable bag I own!

I have this coach bag, can anyone authenticate it for me or ID it for me?

I'm sorry love but that's fake, it's trying to be a poppy Carly and they don't make Carly's anymore, especially not in that style I'm sorry.

Just bought this today. Seems authentic and old but how do I find out?

There is a date code on the leather patch inside. If you post a picture of the entire imprinted area, we can tell you.
