Mostly very light-RED-color BU coin.
Probably slightly darkening spot in the middle of the reverse (around denomination "2") suggested the graders to assign the RED-BROWN grade.

This beautiful almost 100-year old BRONZE coin still have substantial RED-color areas on both obverse and reverse with original luster.
On my opinion it deserves to be graded RED-BROWN !
Darkening areas have green-brown iridescent patina.
