Genuine but it's NOT 40-plus years old. The serial number format proves that it's no older than 1988, and it's a style 507 Pocket Waist Pouch which had a leather waist strap and wasn't even introduced until 1991 so this one would have been made in 1991 or 1992.

Style 516 is a similar style with a woven fabric belt but wasn't introduced until the Fall Preview 1993 catalog, and disappeared shortly afterwards.
Thank you so much. I was a bit confused why there was 2 versions. Have a wonderful rest of the day
 
Hi! Can someone help me authenticate this? If authentic, would love to know the approximate year as I love the style.

item: small coach belt bag/Fanny pack
Purchased: secondhand store
Comments: have seen similar bags posted online that come with a small hang tag on a little ball chain, this one didn’t have that.
Dimensions: small, approx 8 x 4 x 2”

Thanks in advance!
