Hello,
Just rehabbed (sorta) this bag and have been unable to find out it's name. I have seen it described as a large hippie or crescent, sometimes they throw "saddle" in there too....but can find nothing definitive. No style number, catalog pics....nuthin. I can't even really do a search as I have no idea what to call it.

Also, can anyone tell me - approximately - when it was made? I am utterly lost with older bags. 1980s-ish? I doubt it's a 70s bag.

Info: it's a NYC bag, authenticated by Hyacinth (thank you), the coach tag is the older one sided kind, and the buckles are stamped "solid brass usa" on the back.
Bag Depth: 3 inches
Bag Length: 13 iches
Height: 11 inches
Flap closure with one large inside divider pocket, no zippers. IMG_3172.JPG FullSizeRender_1.jpg FullSizeRender.jpg IMG_3172.JPG FullSizeRender_1.jpg FullSizeRender.jpg IMG_3179.JPG

edit - sorry about the repeated pics - no idea what I did/didn't do there.

There were a few short discussions here back in 2010 about it, which I think you posted in. But I got the impression that the Pinlock and the Flagship Clutches were 2 different styles. There's a "PR" in the abbreviated name on the price tag but that doesn't seem to mean "pinlock", maybe "pin-something else"?. Flagship was the name referred to in the Wayback. "Pinlock" may have just been an unofficial nickname like "Baby Sage" that this forum gave to the Kristin Round Satchels.

I asked the husband and he says he remembers it being "the pinlock clutch" at the time I bought it, probably because that's what I referred to it as, but there was also a pinlock bag (I'm kind of remembering it was rather large) that also had the pinlock closure -- which was probably why. He doesn't recall what the PR was for either.
 
Neither do I. None of the details are similar to the pic in post 12139 at all, except the color.
It's the color combo of the red with the white stitching, not the structure of the bag, to which I'm referring. A couple of years ago I tried to trade a (non Coach) red bag with white stitching at Buffalo Exchange. It was in good shape but they rejected it, saying that the white stitching was a no-go for their customers, who found it dated. I guess everything old is new again.
