This is a corroded cent with post mint damage and this can create a lot of odd looking shapes, but not an error.

Re: Very odd wheat penny.
Paul and Daniel are absolutely correct about the damage.
Try soaking in Hydrogen peroxide or acetone for an hour or so and see if some of the unevenness comes off the obverse.
(May be some residue stuck to it as well)
