^I can verify just based on having Lily satchels in both sizes still NWT that the XL was indeed a designation to differentiate between the large and smaller size satchels, although in reality it is obvious based on the size, turnlock flap, lack of kisslock pocket on the medium, and price. Not sure where the XL designation originated from, though, as it's literally been all over the internet for years now, but I guess it could have started from the club thread here. I do know that when it's not listed that way on Ebay for the larger size, everyone asks which size! I've had a LOT of PMs over the years about the diff, lol! In any event, the tag does just read "Legacy leather Lily", $1200, for the "XL" as we define it here, and the smaller Lily tag reads "Legacy leather medium Lily", $768.
As for the bag in question, I also think it's probably walnut just based on the waxy appearance of the leather. Whiskey is generally more porous and has a totally different look and texture. There is actually a period of time where BOTH colors can look very similar despite the ultimate reddish appearance. I've had both pieces that nobody could ascertain the correct color (outside of the leather appearance IMO, which gave it away), but over time, the whiskey does redden more as it darkens. The walnut is more of a dark neutral brown. My bag is darker than this one at least based on photos, but that all depends on the environment and specific leather piece.
CONGRATS CA!!! I'm glad you were able to score one at a great price!!!
