It is an obverse / reverse trail die. The obverse is similar to the 1995P-1DEO-008T, while the reverse is similar to 1995P-1DER-035T.
What does this mean; there is a remote possibility that these two separate dies may have struck this coin (change out of dies by the mint). However, I am more inclined to believe that these are new trail dies. If you would like, I can take a look at it if you are willing to send it on down to me. If so, please contact me at traildies@aol.com.
Congratulations on a very nice find.

This is what I have found; 1995P Lincoln cent-two new trail dies. They are now listed as 1995P-1DEO-012T and 1995P-DER-042T. The reverse die will be listed as a major trail die.) The photos should be on https://www.traildies.com some time next week. I B so proud  . Props to BJ for taking interest in my coin and I can recommend dealing with him to all CCF members. Thanks all, John1

The 1995P Lincoln Cent that John1 submitted is both an obverse and reverse trail die. The reverse die will be listed as a major trail die for it is dual directional. I will have these dies up on the site by Monday; the reverse looks like it has the old "rabbit ears antenna" all over the place. Great find John and congratulations on finding two new trail dies. BJ Neff
