I agree with nickelsearcher. That's a lovely Lincoln, srs.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

A nice example, similar to mine, so I will say high XF to low AU.

At first glance Abe's lips look odd/off....
What's the back story on this, recent purchase or in collection for awhile?

Great looking 31-S. Strong bow tie - I can see AU53.
Acetone might get rid of that black gunk.

Impressive!
