It is indeed issued by the London & Newcastle Tea Company. Unsure of the denomination because the obverse is not shown but 22mm brass ones were ¼ (quarter) pound, 25mm bronze ones were for ½ pound, and brass 28mm ones were for 1 pound. Pound in this case being weight rather than money. The shop can be seen on a postcard of GWW postcard of High Street Falkirk.
