Can anyone identify this Victorian embossed bottle fragment? “RUB” – found at Conwy Morfa, North Wales

Hi everyone,
I’m hoping someone might recognise this embossed bottle fragment.
It was found at Conwy Morfa, North Wales, after recent storms. The beach is known for producing Victorian and Edwardian bottle glass from old coastal refuse deposits.
Details:
Just over 1 inch (2.5 cm) long
Light aqua/teal glass
Thick glass (around 4–5 mm)
Raised embossed capital letters “RUB” in one straight line
Fragment appears to come from the shoulder/upper body of a bottle
Very sea-worn but the embossing is still clear

I found part of a marmite jar!

The last picture is what it would have looked like originally. The second picture is me tracing the letters.
