Is this a genuine Coach bag?

I got this bag in a thrift store for probably 5 bucks at least 20 years ago, so I won't be heartbroken if it's a fake but I am very curious. Image searches suggest it's a Pony Express Coach bag. From what I have read, not all Coach bags have serial numbers, and this one does not seem to have a trace of one, but the leather is extremely nice.
