Here I have snipped the hand catchstitching on the bottom edge of the lining and turned the coat inside out. It is clear that the back of the jacket is unlined, which is fine for the medium weight wool, but would be disastrous in a lighter material. Your back would look misshapen unless you maintained perfect posture at all times. The front is lined with a moderately heavy iron-on jersey knit interfacing(black), which was applied to the center front piece before anything else was done (the fashion fabric and corresponding lining piece are usually treated as one and are basted together heavily when it is not iron-on interfacing). You can also see the white shoulder pads still maintaining their shape at the top and the pockets at the bottom sides.
