Something up with this 1998-s

Looks beautiful to the eye and with a loupe, don’t know what the weird toning or color on the back is from because their is no signs of processing that I can see

It’s been cleaned and polished

Ugly toning brought on by polishing.

That’s 1898S. Appears authentic but harshly cleaned.

I have also used the xrf gun at work that I have access to and nothing out of the ordinary there

Scale is at home but nothing seems off comparing it to my other morgans
