From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:
authenticity
n
  1. undisputed credibility [syn: authenticity, genuineness, legitimacy]
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
   Authenticity \Au`then*tic"i*ty\, n. [Cf. F. authenticit[82].]
      1. The quality of being authentic or of established authority
            for truth and correctness.
  
      2. Genuineness; the quality of being genuine or not corrupted
            from the original.
  
      Note: In later writers, especially those on the evidences of
               Christianity, authenticity is often restricted in its
               use to the first of the above meanings, and
               distinguished from qenuineness.
