The Latin language does have the adjective genuinus, -a, -um, but in the classical period (Caesar, Cicero) it meant "inborn" or "provided by nature". It didn't begin to have a meaning corresponding to modern English "genuine" until later. In classical times the closest translation would have been verus, -a, -um, "real, true", or, in the sense of "pure, unadulterated", incorruptus, -a, -um, and in the sense of "candid, sincere", sincerus, -a, -um.
