U+0482 "҂" Cyrillic Thousands Sign Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
҂
U+0482 "҂" Cyrillic Thousands Sign is a historic typographic symbol used in the early Cyrillic numeral system, known as the Cyrillic numeration, where it was placed before a Cyrillic letter representing a number to multiply its value by one thousand. It served a similar function to a decimal comma or a special mark, effectively converting units like "в" (2) into "2000" when written as "҂в". This character was employed in Old Church Slavonic and early Russian manuscripts before the adoption of Arabic numerals, and it remains encoded in Unicode today as a historic punctuation mark for scholarly and liturgical use.
