Danny,

The two links belong to the "router link state" generated by the local router, with ID 200.0.0.2. The two links represent two different things:

This link describes a neighbor: (the neighbor is 200.0.0.4)
    Link connected to: another Router (point-to-point)
     (Link ID) Neighboring Router ID: 200.0.0.4
     (Link Data) Router Interface address: 150.50.24.2
      Number of TOS metrics: 0
       TOS 0 Metrics: 64
 
This link describes a locally attached network:
    Link connected to: a Stub Network
     (Link ID) Network/subnet number: 150.50.24.0
     (Link Data) Network Mask: 255.255.255.0
      Number of TOS metrics: 0
       TOS 0 Metrics: 64

If you area still confused, have a read of the following (quite a good read....):

Group,
 
In the below config and output of "show ip ospf data router self-originate", I'm not understanding something. If I have only one interface in Area 1, why does the router show 2 links? That first link in the output show ip ospf data router self-originate is 200.0.0.4. This is actually the loopback of the attached router. It is not self-originated.
