Font where M=W?

Are there any fonts where the capital W is exactly the same as the capital M, but mirrored?

Best answer: Lithos Pro seems to fit the bill.

Century Gothic is close and very common.

Terminal is the same basic shape each way, just a few blocky pixels are off.

hah, wrong terminal font, sorry about that. I can't find a good link but that's not the one I was talking about. :D

Mid 20th century-style serif fonts sometimes have that. The oldstyle options on Bodega Serif have an identical letterform for M and W, just flipped vertically.

The Adobe link redirects to a generic storefront, here's a better link for Lithos Pro
I'm now wondering if there are any fonts with similar E and M and W? (when rotated 90%)

Font on Apple keyboards has varied over the years and includes Univers Condensed at times.
