2012 error looney. There's a few die cracks and major extra metal that makes this have two levels on this coin if that makes sense. On the other side I has a big die crack. I will upload another photo of that.

Could it be a Planchet Flaw instead of a Die Break?

Can you take close-up pictures the cracks?

For sure, it's a very nice error

The different areas of toning remind me of a coin coated with glue spots (wood glue).

Try soaking it in 100% Acetone for a few minutes. If it's glue it will dissolve.
