Well, that shoots down my theory.
The real reason is probably something goofy, like they just plain old forgot to emboss some of them and once they got out, it was an "oh, yeah... we MEANT to do that" situation.
Why doesn't the hangtag say "coach"?

I think the bags have become harder to authenticate now with things like the hangtags and the missing creeds or odd creeds. I liked how you could look at the creed number and tell what year the bag was made and the style number and whether factory, pilot bag etc
Some of the boutique stores are set up to do monogramming and some are not. I would call first to check.
I liked the old creed system much better. It gave a lot of information about the bag and helped a lot with authentication.
I think that you are correct, but I agree with the statement that it looks like a mistake or someone forgot to finish the details. I just find it a little odd, but I love my new bag!
What a crock. Just one more "cheap" detail if you ask me.
Glad you love your new bag, Kate. It's gorgeous.
Me too. In fact, it bothered me a bit when I bought other brands and had no clue what they were made of or when they were made. Most bags will say where they were made but nothing else. My Henri Bendels are made of nappa lamb but I'd feel better if it actually said that somewhere, like it does on my nappa lamb Coach bag.
On a positive note, the recent accessories I've gotten have complete creed numbers on a tag inside. Older accessories have nothing but the "made in.." tag usually.
We never use hangtags to authenticate since they are removable. I've bought authentic bags with fake hangtags.
I didn't find a hangtag on my new ace satchel. It looked like it was factory wrapped when I opened it. The leather keyring hanging from the handle says Coach on it - maybe that is supposed to be the hangtag.
I don't remember if one came on the red liv crossbody either. I don't see one in the dd pic except for a tiny metal one on the tassel, and I don't have a red tag in my hangtag collection.
Maybe they are getting more creative by offering diverse versions of the hangtags?

I agree. LOL. But hey, if Coach is that coveted that it doesn't need a hang tag and EVERYONE knows it is a Coach, than perhaps I need to purchase stock!
