Without seeing the coin in-hand my only other suggestion is that the "S" has been worn down and appears like an "8". I have seen this happen to other older S-mint Lincoln cents. If you would like to submit the coin for an in-hand inspection to a third-party coin-certification firm, I suggest reaching out to some of the companies listed here: https://coinvalues.com/library/coin-slabbing-services
