I agree that they are not gas-bubble. The top layer has the effect of a wavy-ness feel to it. It is very distorted compared to other pennies....
Try using your nail and scratch the edge a little. If it peels back a little of the top layer, you should be able to find out whats going on.

Wow! Thank you guys very much for taking the time to figure it out. I thought I had something there. Oh, well. I will still keep it. As...
