I'm not convinced they're plated/reprocessed. Let's see images of the reverse. Thanks.

They should not reflect: This is a MS-67:  |

Just look at the edge of the rim, that will tell you.

I'm with JimmyD, roll up the rim! Without additional photos, I'd have to say yes, plated.  |

Agree with Dr. coop - genuine uncirculated coins have a satin finish, they do not reflect. These appear reprocessed (plated).

They look good to me but more pictures from different angles would help.

Greasy, those fields are so shiny, you can brush your hair in it. I say plated. |

By looking at the rim, what is the tell for differentiating reprocessed from mint state?

Rims aren't usually reprocessed. |

"Rims aren't usually reprocessed"
Just the opposite. If the edges are shiny like the rest of the coin, then it ha been reprocessed.
An original steel cent shows a a steel core sandwiched between two layers of zinc.
This came about because the zinc plating was applied to the steel before
the blanks were punched out and therefore shows the steel core.
The two coins the OP is showing have been reprocessed.
