About the size of a U.S. dime. "C.C.C. Inc" on one side, "Good For One City Fare" on other side. Die cut A in the middle. Found in a coin collection near Alton Il.

Some sort of transportation token (trolley, bus, subway), in any case.

Online I found another like that with an "R" in the center, and it was a token for a trolley by the Rochester Transit Corporation in 1948.

Thanks all. It'll look good in the frame with picture of the trolley car at the Historical Society.
