I have collected several Bat Man counter stamped LMCs over the years. There have been two different styles. I had no idea that Littleton was responsible for at least one of them. (well, I suppose I can't say that I'm to surprised really)

In response to the whale pressed LWC I think you guys nailed it with the Indian Pacific Northwest art style. Here is a print I found for sale online...

It is an Orca Whale...

I would appreciate being corrected if I am wrong, but I believe the Indian art of the Pacific Northwest is a part of the Inuit culture which is not just Western Canada .

Growing up near the border, Canada has always been a part of my life, even though I live further from it now (and miss being so close). I remember in 2016 a new Canadian Province, Nunavet, was created. It is populated (though sparsely) by the Inuit. Since the quite a few Canadian coins have featured Inuit art.

Excellent!

I know I said I would do some digging, but then I quickly forgot after I accidentally closed the tab I had open to do the searching.

Nope, different groups. It is believed that most of the PNW First Nations were in North America for several thousand years before the ancestors of the Intuit came over through Alaska.

Thanks for this correction jbuck


@chafemasterj: Interesting Knights Of Columbus pieces. For some reason I am not sure I recall ever seeing their symbol before? I would think 3 decades would mean I had run into it someplace!

I know I have seen the pipe and cigar in person, but not sure where or when.
