Does This 1891 S Morgan Dollar Look Like It Was Cleaned?

There is a light streak running from the corner of the eye to the center of the cheek.
I'm not sure if that's polish or water or just normal aging. Does-This-1891-S-Morgan-Dollar-Look-Like-It-Was-Cleaned?

Can't quite say--photos are soft and lighting is a bit harsh.

Here are the new images. The streak showed up as a scratch this time. I think it has been cleaned.

It's definitely been cleaned. The obverse appears harshly cleaned in the images.

In the new images there is still a lot of glare, but I'd say it's been cleaned. Appears to be a lot of hairlines on the obverse.
