U+3337 "㌷" Square Peso is a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) compatibility ideograph known as a square symbol representing the word "peso," which is the name of the currency used in several countries including the Philippines and various Latin American nations. It belongs to the block of CJK Compatibility Ideographs, which are encoded for compatibility with older character sets, and is primarily used in Japanese text as a shorthand or decorative form, often appearing in contexts like price tags or financial documents.
