Leaves Metallic Looking

I purchased a Celeste fig tree, info below, at our local nursery this past Saturday. Since then, the leaves have taken on a sort of metallic sheen. I'm thinking maybe it's the shock of moving from dabbled sun in the nursery to full sun on my patio? I did some research and couldn't really come up with much information. I live in Southern Virginia and the temps have been upper 80s/low 90s with pretty strong sun most of the time, but I did try to put the tree at an area where it gets morning and late evening sun and not the strongest afternoon sun.

A few of the leaves have also turned yellow and fell off, and from what I've read it could be due to overwatering.

Any help is appreciated!
