U+216F "Ⅿ" Roman Numeral One Thousand Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+216F "Ⅿ" Roman Numeral One Thousand is a precomposed form of the uppercase letter M used to represent the number one thousand in the ancient Roman numeral system, where it is commonly written as a single glyph rather than as the sequence of two characters "CM" for 900 or the single letter "M" for 1000. This character belongs to the Number Forms block of Unicode and is specifically designed for compatibility with legacy character sets and for use in contexts where a dedicated roman numeral symbol is required, such as in historical documents, clock faces, or typographic representations. It is distinct from the standard uppercase M letter and ensures proper representation in digital text when the numeric value must be unambiguous.
