Just what I thought - yet underneath it looks more silver/grey!
- you could try polishing
the commutator with a dry cloth and some meths,
Tried that already. No difference.
and ensuring
the grooves between the segments are clear - don't scratch the
commutator surface, or undercut the segments.
What does the discoloured segment look like?
Kind of silver/grey as if the copper layer (?) had been taken off. Only
one segment, neighbours are fine.
