We really need bigger pictures, but it looks like a "vice-job", multiple coins put in a vice to create a fake error coin.

Is the extra Lincoln Memorial incused (indented) into the coin?

Welcome to the forum! The second set of pics is excellent. I believe that is a negative impression of a reverse in clear glue adhered to the obverse. The T is either more glue or a die chip. If it is a die chip, those are relatively common and do not carry a premium in most cases.

Please explain the "glue". As I said I'm new to error coins and don't understand all (most) of the terminology.

Clear glue put on the coin and then another coin is impressed into it leaving the details ,,

its something that is seen every now and then .

I completely agree with the posts that indicate that you are seeing the effects of two coins having been glued together and then subsequently separated.
