If this seller had a decent start price,, it could have gone quite high just on their reputation !!  But like I said,, all they need is one bid !!

I think this LW...may be a Foundry mark,...it could stand for light weight...I did google this and there are some refference,s..but not back when this may have been made, but Foundry marks do exist,and...some are like this, just letters...
