Authentic Coach?

Hi!

I hope everyone is having a great holiday season! If anyone can spare a minute, could you tell me if this is real Coach?

Thanks!

Hi, it appears to be an authentic made in Turkey Bag, but you will need a better creed picture for me to be certain.

Thanks! I’m having trouble getting the pictures with my phone … I will try later when I have my iPad. 😊

I found a better creed picture.

Its authentic, style 9953 originally named Helen Bergs Legacy Bag when it was introduced in Fall 1994. Coach quickly shortened the name to Helens Legacy Bag.

Here are 2 catalog pages, the original from the Fall 1994 introduction, and a 1997 page from their website with the modified name Coach collectors are more familiar with.

The H6I- serial prefix indicates that it was made in Turkey  in August 1996.

Wow! Thanks so much! I couldn’t seem to make it work on my phone. I appreciate your time!
