Is something wrong this cent? An optical illusion or something? Or my eyes stuck cross eyed?

I first noticed this cent this way. And my eyes went cross-eyed.

So I turned it upside down and my eyes are stuck crossed eyed.
Is it just my eyes?

Okay okay. If this next pic doesn't help anyone out I'm going to bed and making an appointment with Dr. GO if he's willing to see me.

Anyway it has to do with the shades of copper toning and not any stamped images.

This kind of thing happens to me all the time. I start looking at cents around 8 or 9 in the morning and by lunch everything I pick up is a doubld die !
