U+24D7 "ⓗ" Circled Latin Small Letter H Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ⓗ
U+24D7 "ⓗ" Circled Latin Small Letter H is part of the Enclosed Alphanumerics block, designed for use in lists, diagrams, or symbols where a single character needs to be clearly identified within a circular enclosure. It represents a lowercase 'h' surrounded by a circle, which can be used as a typographic marker for items such as a hotel, help desk, or hospital on signage, menus, or maps. This character is distinct from the regular lowercase 'h' and is typically rendered in a bold or monospaced style within the circle to ensure legibility at small sizes. Its Unicode encoding allows it to be reliably displayed across different digital platforms and fonts for consistent visual communication.
