Iodine is not a lustrous metal.

Explanation:

Idoine is a halogen hence belongs to Group 17. It is a non-metal. Having a lustre is a typical characteristic of metals. The lustre of the metals is due to the free electrons that cause any light incident on the surface to reflect.

Even though Iodine is a non-metal it has a lustre.  Apart from iodine, diamond and graphite also have a lustre.
