The original scan most likely wasn't deleted it just didn't get moved to the new folder. Since you just dropped it in a folder using the OS calibre doesn't know it exists and did not move the scan with the files it did know about.

What format is the original scan in? If it is not a known format I would suggest creating a rar archive and adding that archive to the existing book via the Edit Metadata window, just drag and drop it in the formats area (see attached). If it is a known format like pdf then the same drag and drop previously described will also work. Adding it via this window ensures that the file will always be kept with the book no matter how many times you change the name or author.
