Ţ
T-cedilla (majuscule: Ţ, minuscule: ţ) is a letter which is part of the Gagauz alphabet, used to represent the Gagauz language sound /t͡s/, the voiceless alveolar affricate (like ts in bolts). It is written as the letter T with a cedilla below and it has both the lower-case (U+0163) and the upper-case variants (U+162).

Romanian
In early versions of Unicode, the Romanian letter Ț (T-comma) was considered a glyph variant of Ţ, and therefore was not present in the Unicode Standard. It is also not present in the Windows-1250 (Central Europe) code page. The letter was only added to the standard in Unicode 3.0, and some texts in Romanian still use Ţ instead.
