This one is mystery for me. Obverse is brown and reverse seems to show reddish luster.

I have a feeling I'm going to fail this one quite badly. My guess is somekind reverse highpoint polishing. So VF-details.

The reverse does look to have been cleaned at some point, perhaps there was a bunch of gunk on it.
Overall a nice circulated coin graded as stated- low VF

Agree it's possible the reverse may have been cleaned based on the slightly off-color, stronger flashback for those pics than on the obverse. But it matters little for a coin of such low value.

As the Frog ribbeted, it doesn't lose much value for any light cleaning as it isn't a high enough value for that to hurt it much.

That's not luster. It is a sign that the coin has been cleaned.
