9 Year Old With Light Brown Spots On Fingers. Any Ideas?

My daughter has some light brown spots on her fingers. They are not raised, or itchy... they look like age spots but she is only 9 years old. They just appeared in the last few days, seemingly overnight.

She did pick up some lemons in our yard that had fallen to throw them away, but it's not really a sunburn so not sure. Any thoughts?
