1840 Large Cent--What's Up

I picked this up at a flea market for $2.00. I knew it looked a little off but I didn't have a glass with me. When I got home I was really surprised, Liberty looks really odd, as does the bottom curl on the neck. The detail on the leaves on the reverse really stands out also. It weighs 10.8 grams, and is correct on the diameter. Sorry about the pics, it's the best I can do right now. What do you think?
