These types of cast plaques were fairly common in the 1940s/1950s/1960s in the US - many were made, lots were used as advertising/salesman samples by foundries and/or metalworking shops. I have a similar piece for Benjamin Franklin.
I haven't seen your Lincoln plaque before, but I'm not a dedicated Lincolnia collector.
Lincoln in Numismatics by Robert King used to be the definitive reference for Lincolnia, but more recent reference works have been published. Maybe you can get access to one or more of them . (I'm not sure of their general availability in the Netherlands.)
Good luck!
