Hopefully one of the Cashin experts will chime in. Based on my limited knowledge, I'd guess it's from the 1960s or very early 70s, when the metal tags were used. It may have had either a baseball hang tag, a cartouche hang tag, or none. There's very little surviving information about names and style numbers from that period.

There are a few listed on eBay right now, if you want to compare.

Hi! I can't identify your bag, but I found a few more listings:

This one is colorblocked and claims it's 60s with no hang tag or creed:

Assuming these are authentic, they appear to have an NYC creed and hangtag and one says 70s, so maybe this is a style Coach continued after Bonnie Cashin left:

Good luck! Your bag looks great in any case! The straps kind of remind me of the recent Bandit bag.
 
Please help me to identify this little pouch that I thrifted today. I can find no creed, no date code, no style number, only a little “made in China” tab. It seems to be Nubuck, with calf leather trim and crossbody strap. It is lined in heavy grey satin. Thanks so much for any help.
It’s tiny. About 8”x5”x2”.

I love a mystery Lol. While I am not familiar with that bag per se, the ring style / orientation is often referred to as a Hippie style. The closure looks the touch lock style that originated with vintage bags. I just did a search on eBay of Coach Hippie bags and few came up a bit larger with the touch lock from 2012 identified from the Poppy Line. It’s a start! I am not getting a nubuc vibe from your pics though.
Edited to add, maybe not the Poppy Line. While they have a touch lock, the shape of the leather attachment is different.

Thanks L E. That gives me something to go on anyway. I’ll keep googling.
it’s just the cutest little bag! When I found it, there was no hang tag, so I dug one out that will work. You may be right about the Nubuck . I’m not sure about it. It IS a very strange material tho. It kind of seems like Nubuck but not really. I hope I can describe it. . . . It seems somewhat “nap-like” if you know what I mean. Very very soft!
Actually it’s downright beautiful! Never seen anything like it! I imagine it attracts dirt like a magnet since it was really dirty when I found it but I brought it home for a “Woolite” bath and it responded beautifully. Hopefully someone will recognize it from days gone by?

Not sure if this is the official name but it is from the Poppy line. I have the larger version in red and orange that's called Dylan. Not sure what this one was called. Found this on the Pinterest:

I don't know whether my question can be answered without pictures but I'll try. (I should know better!)

Bag is almost identical to a pocket purse (9755) in size but has a thicker strap with buckle and the front flap only goes half way down the front of the bag (as opposed to pocket purse where it goes to bottom).

It has exterior open back pocket, interior zippered pocket and gusseted pocket under the front flap.

Measurements 9.5" wide x 6.5" high x 2.5" deep.

Thanks!

Did you look on ebay to find one? You didn't say what type of creed it had which would help narrow it down to an era. I don't know if you mean there are buckles to attach the strap to the bag or a buckle to adjust the length.

I'm not an identifier (is that the title?) but I think it's the compartment bag. Not sure if that's the official name (as others have mentioned that people frequently mix up the names) but people seem to refer to it as that. Assuming this listing is authentic this seems to match your description:

I knew I should have waited and just posted pictures. I was just being lazy!

I did look on ebay (very quickly) but I don't always recognize some of the differences among the bags.

The bag has a made in the United States creed, xxxx-xxx random serial number.

@LaVisioneer, I think that's that same bag that Miss Muffett has.

I'll be back.
