U+102EB "𐋫" Coptic Epact Number Twenty is a numeral sign used within the Coptic calendar and astronomical computations, representing the number 20 in the ancient Coptic epact system. This system was employed by Coptic Christians to calculate the date of Easter and other movable feasts by tracking the age of the moon. The glyph itself is a distinct symbol from the standard Coptic alphabet numerals, originating from a tradition of abbreviating Greek numerical notation with local Coptic influences. As part of the Coptic Epact Numbers block, it preserves a specialized numeric script that is crucial for understanding historical liturgical calendars and medieval Egyptian mathematical texts.
