Stamp with the perfin 'LC and S' on it - what was 'LC and S'?

The answer will depend on what country the stamp is from. If it is a US Stamp, it is probably the Leadville Colorado & Southern Railroad. I haven't found a British listing, though I have seen examples of British stamps with that set of initials on it. It might be a Railroad Company as well. I found no record of the initials used in Hong Kong. Perfins were common on many British Commonwealth stamps, so could relate to any of those countries.
