Just study the couple's faces and compare them to the known images. Where's the resemblance at all to either of the Lincolns?

And, referring to your claim that Mary Lincoln had a noticeable scar on her forehead, I contacted one of the best known authors in the field who specializes in the history of Mrs. Lincoln. Here is the reply: "The daguerreotype is so obviously not Abraham and Mary Lincoln I don't even know what to say... In reading (literally) everything ever written by and about Mary Lincoln... , I can tell you I have never heard mention of a scar on her forehead. If there was a scar, I agree with you that one or more reporters would have written about it, some DC socialite who hated Mary would have written it in a later memoir, and Mary herself definitely would have complained about it in her own letters."
