Evidence

POSITIVE
  • photo 1: Leather handbag silhouette and gathered construction are clearly visible.
  • photo 1: The bag has a structured top-handle design and visible metal feet.
  • photo 1-2: leather handbag with 9.5 inch scale consistent with handbag category
NEGATIVE
  • photo 1: No COACH wordmark, horse-and-carriage emblem, creed patch, or recognizable Coach hardware is visible.
  • photo 1: Tortoiseshell lucite handles and the gathered frame shape are not characteristic evidence of a classic Coach model.
  • photo 2: Visible base hardware appears generic; no Coach engraving or identifying stamp is visible.
  • photo 1: The seller describes the bag as vintage but provides no Coach-specific details.
  • photo 1: sculpted tortoiseshell lucite top handles - never used on vintage Coach classics
  • photo 1: gathered frame purse silhouette with no turnlock, no flap, no Coach catalog match
  • photo 1-2: no COACH wordmark, horse-and-carriage, creed patch or hangtag visible
  • photo 2: bottom feet are small brass-tone studs but no Coach construction cues
MISSING INFORMATION
  • photo 3: Interior view, including any leather creed patch, fabric label, lining, and closure.
  • photo 4: Close-up of any interior or exterior brand markings and hardware stamps.
  • photo 5: Side, back, and top/closure views.
