Can anyone figure out what this may be to?

Hey Everyone! I recently got this token (Please ignore the others) It appears to be a coal camp token as there is now a bridge that is named after Meridian in VA. It appears to be somewhat homemade. Can anyone tell me something about it. Thanks.

Probably what the company paid the miners and it was only good at the company store

it's regular token. made by a die maker.
is not in edkin's coal company obsolete scrip or money catalog or dodrill listing.
I have a 1919 dunn listing and it shows as a general store, augusta county.
this may not eliminate being a company store for a mine, but doubtful. dun 0r dunn & bradstreet usually lists industry type.

I see reference to a 50¢ on the web & the penny is listed on "tokencatalog.com" listing -- F.F. BURKE / MT. MERIDIAN, / VA. (TC-275130) Mount Meridian, Virginia, U.S.A.

shows abbreviations F.F. Burke for "Floyd Francis Burke (1870-1953)"
