Vintage 60s/70s Gucci coat -- help me date/more info

I have this vintage Gucci suede leather jacket/coat but haven't seen another label like it. Assuming 70s but could it be 60s? Is it newer?

I think it's a special piece but I guess it may not be. Wondering about age and if anyone just tell me a bit more about any aspect of the coat that may be interesting for me to know like identifying the label to era, the button detailing bits (significance of red and blue colors against green suede?) or anything at all? Thanks so much in advance!

Does it have shoulder pads? The enamel trimmings, leather label, contrast leather panels and plaited hanger loop make me think 70s to 80s.
I'm afraid your photos don't match the colours you describe in from the light you photographed under. Best to take some more in daylight if you can for any answers re the colours. Certain shades can be indicative of eras too.
 
Barbara's date made me look at the collar again, it does appear to have sharp points. Can you show it done up please?
 
The points on the collar are indeed sharp (photos attached) although one of them is a bit folded -- can I steam suede and get that flat or is that how it will be?

You think 1970-1971 too Melanie?

Thanks so much as always.

Sorry when I said done up I mean with the front fastened and the collar lying down, the points will head towards the floor. :)
The very pointed collar would suggest a c.1970 dating.
