Is this plain Anery or what?

I'm not an expert, but I've never seen pink cheeks on an anery. That's a trait I see often on ghosts, though. What is a "Coal"? Or is that just his name?

I think "Coal" is his name, Pepper. 
And, if I remember right, Aneries can, indeed, have "pinkish" cheeks. In this case, though, I think the lighting in the image is just throwing you off. In the first pic, what can be seen of his cheeks look yellow-brown like the rest of him (at least on my monitor). =)
Very nice snake! I may be going out on a limb here, but he almost looks yellow enough to be a caramel, or at least something caramel-based... Otherwise, yeah, very nice Anery!

definitely does NOT look like a normal anery to me.

It piss me so bad.
Yeah I'm with Floof here, anery corns do tend to have pink cheeks. The reason ghosts have them is because they're hypo aneries. And the transition there from the pink to yellow is just classic anery. I believe males tend to keep their pink cheeks more than females do (someone correct me if I'm wrong here).
And this corn sure looks a lot like yours; c/o Ians Vivarium
I can see what you're saying with the "caramel-based" thing, but I'm still leaning towards anery. Do you by chance know the parents?

I've got 2 bog-standard aneries that I love to pieces. Norwood is very similar to Coal, while Butch has darker saddles.
Look at Carol's aneries for a really good idea of just how varied and beautiful any anery can be
(Edited to add, I actually know that my darker boy has far more chance of being het for caramel, because he came out of a butter project)

You're right. Norwood is very similar to Coal. Coal's colours look closest to reality in my third picture, where you can see the lavender background. I have no idea about parentage as once again this snake was a gift from my daughter, as was Rubes, and in both cases they were rescued from clueless friends of hers (thank God).
The snake does tend towards the brown end of the spectrum rather than grey, but when it was little it was pretty much black and white, like a humbug. It's certainly getting lighter as it grows.

Norwood was much darker as a hatchling, and whilst I wouldn't replace him for the world (he's the snake all my family always want to hold, with such a mellow personality) I deliberately looked for an anery where I knew there was a chance of the darker saddles when I got Butch from a breeder because I wanted a dark anery too. I love all the pink/peach/brown tones on Norwood and can see the same lovely colours on Coal.

I'm gonna go with Anery, too. Anery is a favorite gene of mine, so I'm always seeking out pictures of them and they seem to be just as variable (in browns, creams, tans, blacks, etc) as Normals. Yours is no exception! Love her thick black borders around the saddles. And I'd have to say pink cheeks is very much an Anery trait. I've seen it on many Anerys, as well as my Ghost and my Aneryblood.

Interestingly I just posted the pics on an English forum and the answer came back overwhelmingly ghost. By the way, there's absolutely NO pink on him. In fact the cheeks carry a yellow tint. Actually the background is a light taupe, the saddles are brown, and the belly chequers are also brown, not black. His eyes are black in a yellowy/grey ground.
