I can now confirm that this is a case of grease-mold doubling. The degree of offset is even greater than the several 1995 cents I've inspected.
Congrats Joel... You are getting a find published... Way to go!!!
I actually have a few of these lying around somewhere. Always just thought it was simple greaser. I love learning stuff on this forum!

Excellent article Mike... Thanks!!!
Mike, Thank you for the article and the very thorough explanation. I have forwarded the article to my three adult children and they were very interested and impressed by your very comprehensive discussion of the origin of grease-mold replication. I very much appreciate your interest, your time and your investigation into this unusual Lincoln cent.
Thank you for your sharp eyes and generous loan of this specimen. -- Mike
Fifteen months later and I found a duplicate of my 1998 grease mold doubled Lincoln. I found it on Coin Talk because a member Amos 811 uses it as his avatar. Check it out.
