Indentify the colors of my Maine Coon, Max

I purchased my maine coon, Max about 4 months ago form a respectable breeder in South Africa. I just want to make sure about the registration of Max. On his registration papers it he is registered as 64 31 SoB
As I looked it up on the Cat Registrar of South Africa it seems he is White and Black Bi coloured.
I am attaching a photo of Max and just ask it somebody can confirm his colouring as I am still unsure because he has multiple colouring on his back, head and tail.
Thank you.

hi cecila ..no idea on colour but he is a stunning boy

I’d say he’s black classic tabby with white. AFAIK “bicolor” is only used for non-tabby, but I am not familiar with the South African coding system.
In the FIFE system he would be coded as n 22 09.

He is indeed drop-dead gorgeous... has a wonderful face on him.:nod:

I also thought that he has tabby features (eg on his face) but according to the registration he is not tabby but bi-coloured, (Black and White) that is why I need to know if the breeder has correctly registered him. If I put him on shows he will be disqualified if not correctly registered.
The breeder has registered him at the CFSA (Cat Federation of South Africa) like this:
Breed MCO (Maine Coon)
Dominant Colours: 05 (Black/Brown/Seal/Ruddy)
Colour pattern: SoB (Solid Bi-colour)
I will appreciate your comments.

Definitely a classic tabby, patina is evident on sides and face, it may be the lighting, but I would guess brown classic tabby and white...

Then someone must have made a mistake.

This is a black and white bicolor.

he is a gorgeous boy, are you going to show him.

Just to follow-up, the creator of the chart sent me a direct link while her website layout is fixed: Guide to Cats

Thank you for all your comments. I want to show him but must sort out his registration first. I will take this matter up with the breeder and the Cat Federation.
Thank you
