The color looks uneven and slightly blotchy. I could be wrong but have seen enough of these to make a pretty confident opinion and that's all it is, my opinion.

VG/F and heavily circulated copper should not be blue, that is quite possibly copper sulfate

Also, the deep gold and magenta in LIBERTY and near the nose threw up flags for me as well.

Fine 12. In my humble opinion the blueish color detracts and is not what you tend to look for with the old copper cents. However beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I do know that if it was cleaned or colored it was before we obtained it and we have had this coin for 35+ years.It had a tone to it but has deepened with the years.
