It's fine.

Thank you! I appreciate your time. What is the proper name of this style? All I could find was Legacy Satchel?

That's the correct name.

ETA: There have been some pretty close fakes of that style so it's a good idea to verify authenticity.

In the following post, the photobucket pictures show just one example of a fake and one could easily be fooled.

If the number is 9163 it was called a Legacy Compartment Tote on the website, but Coach sometimes changed style names during production.

Oops, I got the name, "Legacy Satchel" from your post here:
https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/authenticate-this-coach.763164/page-195#post-23019588

ETA: In that post, it was 9063 you were talking about. In my best Rosanna Rosannadanna voice, I'll say, "never mind!"

Hey, it's easy to get confused between those 2, the only apparent difference is the strap length and the removable long strap on the Satchel, and having such similar numbers just adds to the confusion. The Legacy Satchel turned out to be the more popular style and it got faked a LOT.

It's a genuine Soho Small Satchel from 1998.

ETA - And for the Old Fogies among us, here's another example of our favorite saying, "The only consistent thing about Coach is their inconsistency". A "satchel" by most definitions has 2 short handles and is usually meant to be hand-carried, see the pics from today's earlier posts. I and probably any normal SANE person would have called this style 4106 single-strap-attached at the corners-bag a HOBO. But NOOOOOOOOOOO-OOO! (apologies to John Belushi, to continue the SNL references) For some reason known only to them and to the Powers running the universe, Coach called it a Satchel.

It's a wonder we Coachies have any hair left, logic would seem to indicate that we should have all torn ours out by the roots now in frustration.
