It has a fatter egg carrying abdomen and a more skinny male abdomen and has male and female sex organs.
It was a first for Lyle Smith, the manager of the Cherry Street Fish Market in Danvers. According to the Danvers Herald, a lobster delivery from the vessel William Bowe included a unique specimen--a lobster with both male and female parts.

http://www.wickedlocal.com/danvers/features/x1946670598/Lobster-found-with-both-male-and-female-partsLyle Smith, the manager of the Cherry Street Fish Market, has been in the business for more than 40 years but Oct. 26 still represented a first for him – a lobster with both male and female parts!
A close look at the lobster shows a row of eggs lining one side of the lobster's underbelly, while the other side has typical male parts. A ship called the William Bowe, which is captained by Smith's brother-in-law, caught the lobster 200 miles offshore.
