Looks like a one penny truck token from mining days. The link below says the letters are TIC (Tredegar Iron Company):

not sure if it is the tredegar iron company -- i came across this link

http://www.tredegar.co.uk/history/#Tredegar Iron and Coal Company

Tredegar Iron and Coal Company
The formation of Tredegar Iron and Coal took place in 1875.The Company made great strides forward with colliery developments. One such development was the conversion of the Balance Pits that were around to Steam driven Pits. This greatly enhanced coal production. The Tredegar Iron and Coal Company was in existance until 1946 and the formation of the National Coal Board

was there an early company, the foreruner of the above?

this is a great link for identifying tokens

further research and info on this site proves that the original identification by Leighton was spot on. it even gives a piccy of the token.

well done leighton

Great! To be honest, I just Googled a few things and got lucky. But like they say in Vegas, it's better to be lucky than good.
