Wow thank you! Is this a common type of coat? I know nothing about it, it has no tags other than one saying it's inner lining is silk.

I'd say it's not as well known as mink and fox but it' one that people who know of it like to wear because of It's fullness. It' a good coat.

Caryn, What in the world is a Finn raccoon? Wild, farm raised? Where? I know you are busy, but curiosity overwhelms me.

Well, Finn raccoons, tanuki, and Asiatic raccoons are all subspecies of the raccoon dog. They have a similar appearance to raccoons and they are in the canid family which is the same family that dogs are from but they are neither. They are both found in the wild and are farm raised too.

We have tanukis at our local (Atlanta) zoo. They are so adorable. Their fur looks very much like this coat.
