With such weird errors my first thoughts usually go to appalling cleaning... I don't think the coin came all white from the mint.

Hello,
Thank you for answer. But this coin isn't look like have coating. It looks more as copper-nickel coin. Could it be pattern? I found that there is some patterns wrere struck in 19-th century on copper-nickel planchets.

What's the weight? I suspect Cu-Ni will weigh different to bronze.

The weight is little bit different - 2.9 gramms instead 2.8 gramms of normal farthing.
