U+2473 "⑳" Circled Number Twenty Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⑳
U+2473 "⑳" Circled Number Twenty is a typographic symbol that represents the number twenty enclosed within a circle, belonging to the "Enclosed Alphanumerics" block in the Unicode standard. It is typically used in contexts such as ordered lists, indexing, or notation systems where a decorative or compact representation of the number is desired, often complementing other circled digits and numbers from one to twenty. This character, encoded in Unicode version 1.1 in 1993, serves as a visual alternative to plain numeric digits, particularly in East Asian writing systems and in design-oriented documents where consistency with other circled numerals is required.
