I can't enlarge your photos. Where was this purchased? If it was online, please post a link and the name of the seller.
 
That’s what I was guessing. In your time here on the Forum and with the eBay guides , any contact with anyone who ever spoke with one of the craftsmen? Or employees from the era before the Cahn’s sold the company?

Not that I can remember. There were a few older former employees at the old Ebay Shoes & Accessories board but I don't think any of them went back to the pre-Sara Lee days before 1985 when the Cahns still owned the company

Hello Ladies:
Please authenticate the following item:
Item: COACH Signature Khaki/Leather Envelope Wallet with Checkbook Pull Out

Comments: If possible, please provide item's name and number.
Thanks in advance and all the best in 2020!
It appears authentic. There was one that looked like this called signature checkbook wallet, style #6058, from 2003, but I imagine they made many wallets that were very similar.
I think the wallet looks good too but it's not 6058. I believe it might be 6K13, a similar style but with the thicker trim.

Following are the stock images, first 6058 then 6K13.

This is another example of 6058 (showing the thinner trim more clearly than the stock image):

As @whateve said, there were several similar styles and some are very closely faked, going as far as the fakes having 6K13 tags!
