Congratulations! You've done well! And you're lucky you never got into the slg's or fobs, they are really addicting as odd as that sounds....and I should know.
I have something like this: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/81/e1/66/81e166879c1e7c60331ab7ed4ebcd787.jpg in one of my closets. It separates into two hangers of 3 shelves each. I only use them for small items because they are just cloth. Most of my collection is on bookshelves. I have some drawers for SLGs. I have a few pegs on the wall that I use to hang a few purses.
My coach bag count is at 8, with number nine being shipped to me soon. They are all standard coach - vintage USA oldies.
For storage I use a bin that has a lower front - got it at the container store. It holds a few purses, easy to see, like books on a shelf. I have a lot of odd shelf space so it works out that way (older house with awkward closet space).

I can imagine! I guess it is lucky - more money for more bags instead, ha ha.
Do not get me wrong, I have seen lots of cute FOBs but while I can admire them afar I tend to not like things hanging off my own bags (I even usually remove what they came with), and having more bags/pouches (even if teeny ones) to store, use, keep track of, and so on leaves me feeling itchy. I don't like to have to much "stuff" these days, and even 10-11 bags is pushing my limits!
I added two in the span of two weeks. And I've gotten rid of a few as well so that would bring my current count to about 7. One clutch (a Bonnie Cashin from 2009), one mini bag (a Kristin), one crossbody ( a rambler), 5 satchel types (a Sophia, a Bonnie Cashin straw one, a Madison something one, a rogue 25, and rogue satchel) .
I had seriously given up on Coach when everything at the regular was on sale for 70% at the outlet like months later. The poppy line was not my favorite. If I was going to spend THAT much money on canvas, I'll just buy LV. I jumped to a few different brands, RM, botkier, Longchamp, Marc Jacobs, I went berserk once and got a Chanel bag.
But ever since I was little I've always loved Coach. I think I got my first Coach bag the was new and not an old purse of my moms, which I still have lol, I didn't count it Bc I don't use it, when I was 12.
lol I don't even know what kind it is.

I'm down around 20 bags. Accessories probably 15. Coach was my first bag I ever purchased on my own and I just fell in love. As I got older I did expand into new brands but I always come back to Coach. It's my first love ❤️.
I want to say that's a Hamptons satchel from around 2004? I remember when that collection debuted, it was so cute! My first Coach bag was the Girlie Hobo in true red. I still have it, 17 yrs later and it is in pristine condition.
I have a friend who was like you - loved Coach and has numerous Coach bags but turned away for a while because of the discount/outlet issue. But unlike you, I don't think she has "gone back" yet. She still carries her Coach bags, but does not swap them out so much anymore.
Oh yeah, I totally get it. I'm glad Coach came back with their 1941 line. All the pieces in the line are so nice and actually feel worth their price.
I don't know what the name is either, but it's the sweetest bag!

Ah sweet! That's it. The creed says it's from 2004 hehe. I wish I could add a long strap to it. I can't do a top handle only bag anymore.
I don't see why you couldn't hook one onto the handle rings. Or if you don't mind altering your bag, it would be fairly easy to punch holes in the sides.
