Hello authenticators, I would be very grateful for your opinion on if this bag is a genuine Station bag or not:

Item: Vintage Tan Leather Shoulder Saddle Messenger Handbag-Coach
Listing number: 403638918184

Thank you!
The bag is fake.

I've rotated the creed to make it easier to read.

Hi authenticators, may I please have this bag authenticated?
Please excuse the top flap being lighter. It is drying after a dunking, bottom is damp still.

Item: Station Bag
Where purchased or how obtained: bought locally from nice older woman.
Comments: I’m worried about the G plant issues, and want to be sure. The strap is also different from my definitively authentic Station. It looks like a strap to a Pocket Purse.
Bag is 9in,9.5inx1.5 (laying flat)
Strap is 44in


Thank you so much.

It looks good to me. In this case there's no problem with the G plant code, and Coach changed the strap on the Station Bag right around 1998 from a 44-inch single piece to an adjustable 48-inch 2-piece strap.
 
Could you guys please authenticate this bag. Purchased at savers but now I’m thinking it’s fake. :/
Measures 8" by 9" by 2"
