i was just going to say my FD lenses from the 1970/80’s had this, and were marked FD SSC on the front, so the beginning of this post brought back those memories. Thought maybe that was part of all their lenses since then and they just don’t talk about it anymore but nevertheless that description sounded familiar.

You have an early type SSC on your lens...!!!  They stopped printing the S.S.C. on the lenses when the EF changeover occurred and the method of Vapor Deposit coating, plus the quality and thickness of the coating, has changed over time.  I think only some FD lenses had the coatings, not all of them... the FDn series had S.C. coatings or none at all.
