I have never had one with that part number. Is it a Lexmark, PS/2, attached cord?

Probably no more than a new Unicomp, at best. A 42H from Greenock is probably less desirable.
"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated.

1391407 is the same as 1391401 - EXCEPT that it is NOT ANSI-layout, it's ISO-layout..
AND it's (obviously) not US-'English' language, it's  DANISH language, indicated by the '07' ..
But it has been re-keyed to UK-ENGLISH layout, with MUCH better quality  NEW Unicomp-caps .
(Have you ever seen a Model M with a space-bar the same yellow colour as Swiss-cheese ?
It's a used 96-98 Greenock-board !)

I know this because I'm pretty sure it's my auction you are not talking about :)
( http://www.ebay.de/itm/281022987178?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1586.l2649 )

NO - THESE ARE NOT 'LEXMARK-MADE' - BOARDS !
THEY ARE MADE BY IBM - Strictly speaking they shouldn't exist, at all !

Maybe I'll take a picture of the +25 NIB ISO-Model M's I have and post it on usenet-pr0n :) ...

EDIT :
If you buy it on eBay .. That's the price !

If you PM me .. I'd rather give YOU a 15% discount than let eBay make 10% :) :)

Obviously, I can offer these, with the original Danish key-set, to Danish and Norwegian GH'ers at a much better price !
PM me if interested ..
