I am like the rest; that texture is seemingly unique. My specimen and other specimens I've seen have smooth, wavy surfaces. The crinkles on this one make it different.

Coop, you do mean struck-thru a deteriorating die cap right? Can't be a die cap itself wouldn't look like this correct?

As others have surmised, this cent was struck through a late-stage die cap. The custard-like texture is not particularly unusual among zinc cents.
