Hello everyone, I've this old bronze token. As you can see there is a "T" and an "F" and 2 concentric circles with same strange words written in it but I'm unable to read them. They don't seem in latin alphabet.

The edge has an irregular thickness, it has a 2,5cm diameter and a weight of 7,6gr.
The other face of the coin is completely smooth.

I live in Italy so, -maybe- this is an Italian token.

I'm struggling with this since some days so any any advice is really appreciated!
Thank you very much and sorry for my poor english.

Welcome to the forum.

The T and F do not look like they are perfectly aligned with the circles. This makes me think they were punched individually. There is no obvious indicator of any value. I wonder if this is some kind of factory tool check or tally marker.
