U+8D0B "贋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
贋
U+8D0B "贋" CJK Unified Ideograph is a Chinese character primarily meaning counterfeit, fake, or forged, often used in the context of fraudulent documents or artworks. It is a variant form of the more common character 偽 (fake), and in traditional Chinese, it appears as 贗, while in simplified Chinese it is rarely used. The character belongs to the Kangxi radical 154 (貝, meaning shell or money), reflecting its historical association with material value and deception. In Unicode, it is encoded under the CJK Unified Ideographs block and is used across East Asian languages, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, though its usage is less frequent in modern writing compared to its synonym 偽.
