What happened to this 1882-S Morgan?

The obverse has beige-paint-looking splotch on the neck. Similarly, a tan-like shadow is under the date, and behind the lower-left stars, as if radiated from the center. Same material seems to be on top of the 8, 8 and 2.
To my untrained eye, the neck splotch looks dabbed on with a brush. But the material under the date and behind the stars are perfect shadow images, as if something was sprayed from a low height, but then the "shadow" would have been clean of the material, not filled in as it is. What could have caused that?
Anybody seen this kind of thing before?
