There's no way to be sure it's ok with just the pictures in the listing. I don't remember if that style had a creed stamp, but there isn't even a photo of the inside. So unless there's a creed stamp, there's no way to even be sure it's a genuine Coach. Any manufacturer can copy another maker's style legally. Looking like a similar Coach style doesn't mean much.

I suggest you ask the seller if there's any kind of stamp inside.
I'm seeing a creed stamp?

Won the auction for this lovely Willis bag. The creed stamp is a little faded. And the hardware is silver-tone even though every black Willis bag I've seen has brass hardware .. Just wanted to make sure that it is authentic. Thanks in advance! :)
