identifying manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries?

This is probably a silly question, but is it possible to identify the manufacturer of a lithium-ion battery by the text printed on the battery? Lithium-ion batteries are not usually sold to end consumers directly, so they normally won't have flashy labels on them. However, they generally have printed text that shows (among other things) the rated capacity.

For example, the battery that came with my DSD charger (see picture) has "LC ICR18650" printed on it, as well as its voltage and capacity. A Google search for "LC ICR18650" returns nothing conclusive, but searching for just "ICR18650" returns several results that mention Samsung. Was this battery made by Samsung, or was it just a coincidence?

That battery is a chinese copy.

These are actual Samsung 2600mah batteries:

The capacity is denoted by the 26C.

Different manufacturers use different codes to denote their batteries.
