Please don't flag this question as duplicate. They've sent BCH to their BCH address, but they have problems with the address format.

It should show up in your Ledger.

Cashaddr is a representation of the underlying hash for that address. Each BCH address has a legacy and a cashaddr format. In your case, it is simply likely that the block explorer Coinbase links to defaults to showing the cashaddr format. There are explorers which will show you both, such as [blockchair](https://blockchair.com).

For instance, looking up the address [1FPS2Y71KhNQbugjMxAGKwsUFNbvfsYm2h](https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-cash/address/1FPS2Y71KhNQbugjMxAGKwsUFNbvfsYm2h) on blockchair will show you it's cashaddr representation as well, which is `qzwulnvalvs6gwfy9t7gz5qxs22t9fag45tpcgu32g`. Funds sent to either of the above will be accessible by the same private key, in a wallet following either format. Both addresses refer to the same underlying script.
