Ok, this is how it looks like when I look at them with my tools:

Standard SBS
============
The original file:
- TORY: 1899 (Visible in SBS 7.5 as TDOR, scanned into YEAR in SBS)
- TYER: 1998 (Visible in SBS 7.5 as TDRC)

The copy:
- TXXX (ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE): 1899 (Visible in SBS 7.5 as "ORIGINAL
RELEASE DATE")
- TYER: 1998 (Visible in SBS 7.5 as TDRC, scanned into YEAR in SBS)


Custom Scan behaves like this:
==============================
The original file (without Raw mode):
- YEAR: 1899

The original file (with Raw mode):
- ORIGYEAR: 1899
- YEAR: 1899 

The copy (with or without Raw mode)
- YEAR: 1998
- ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 1899

Further analysis:
=================
I think the tag editing software you used to create the copy isn't
properly supporting TORY tags, the result is that it writes it to the
file as a TXXX tags with the name "ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE". Due to this
SBS handles them differently.

Possible solutions as I see it:
Solution 1: 
Patch Custom Scan (Modules/CustomTag.pm), change the rawTagNames
mapping table in the beginning of the file so TYER => YEAR is changed to
TYER => TYER. The result of this should be that you with raw checkbox
enabled should for the original file get:
- YEAR: 1899 (which you can ignore)
- TYER: 1998
- ORIGYEAR: 1899 
After this you should be able to map TYER and ORIGYEAR as you like with
the tag mapping attribute.

Solution 2:
Retag the files with TXXXX tags which you can then configure to use in
Custom Scan. I wouldn't rely on that the tagging software writes a TXXXX
(ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE) tag, select a different name instead that will
work in all tagging softwares.

Solution 3:
Give up
