It looks normal to me. Maybe someone cleaned it at one point? That can give coins an unnatural color.

Maybe it's the photo but that coin looks OK to me too. Possibly kind of new looking for something that is so old, but looks normal.

It's brass - a mixture of 95% copper and 5% zinc. All of them are like this.
