Hello!

I bought these two bags many years ago (about 10 and 8 years ago) at the outlet in Smithfield, NC and have no idea the style name or code. The pink one's serial is G04J-1409 and the gold one doesn't have one. I was told the pink was a "test bag" that Coach made, but decided not to produce. That doesn't sound quite right, but I don't think the bag was ever sold FP. Anyone have any info? TIA!

The gold one MIGHT be a Madison Flap from around 2006-07 but I only have numbers for the Scarf Print and Legacy Stripe versions.

Please post a photo of the creed patch and serial number of the pink one. It might be a pilot bag and those were usually marked with either a "P" or an outlet mark. I've seen that style before and it was called a Hamptons Tweed Mini but I don't know Coach's official name for either one.

Always post creed photos when asking for an ID or authentication. Measurements also would help

Thanks Hyacinth! That's exactly what it is. I couldn't remember for the life of me. I think at the time it they were calling all these bags Anniversary Legacy Stripe or something. (And don't you just love the way Coach uses "Madison" to name any and everything)

My photo skills aren't the best, but here's the creed for the pink.

The pink satchel matches the other pictures in my files including the outlet mark, so I'm sure it's genuine. The design was used on other bags during the same time so a wool version isn't too strange.

And yes, "Madison" probably holds the record for the number of times Coach has used it, and usually on completely unrelated styles. "Hamptons" is another one that was slapped on probably a hundred different style numbers just in handbags.

Hi folks, I am new here, so if I mess up protocol, please teach me how I am supposed to do things. Thanks. :)

I am wondering if anyone can tell me anything about this wristlet??

There is no creed or anything.

Thank you for your help!

I know you need more than the one picture I'm providing to authenticate bags, however, I only have this picture, as it's not mine. All I really want to know is if Coach ever actually made this style bag in this fabric. I have searched high and low and can only find it on foreign websites. The style number is F13770.

I think there is a good chance they did. I remember seeing bags with that fabric in 2010 at the outlet. The F at the front of the style number indicates it was made for factory stores. I can't remember if they had that specific style at the time.

There was a black one in the same style and fabric on ebay but it doesn't have the pictures I need to tell if it was authentic. According to the seller, the black color was produced in limited quantities.

Ok, that's great. As long as there is a chance it's authentic, then I"ll leave it alone. Darn, though, lol, I passed one up myself because I couldn't be certain. Thanks so much.
