This plate is not listed in Official White House China, 2nd edition, 1999. The book is the definitive record of presidential china, and this edition only goes up the Clinton administration. It should be noted that only china used in state functions is depicted. It's a large book with splendid photographs and detailed research. The Lincoln china usually shown was purchased in 1861 in the Solferino pattern with purple border and an eagle in the center. A second pattern was bought in 1861, with a simple pattern of buff border edged in gilt lines. It's called the Buff pattern, and was not shown in the White House china book.
