U+8CFF "賿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
賿
U+8CFF "賿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character that historically falls under the semantic component for shell or money (貝, the left radical) combined with the phonetic element 翏 (liù) on the right, though its precise meaning and usage remain obscure in modern Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. It is not included in common dictionaries of these languages and appears primarily in ancient or specialized texts, with some sources suggesting it may have referred to a type of valuable object or currency. As a result, it is rarely used in contemporary writing and is of interest mainly to paleographers and Unicode enthusiasts.
