U+91E0 "釠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
釠
U+91E0 "釠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and largely archaic Chinese character that falls under the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block, a collection of East Asian logographic characters shared among Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese writing systems. Its structure combines the "metal" or "gold" radical (釒) with a phonetic component, and it is typically defined in classical dictionaries as meaning to split or saw metal, though it has very limited usage in modern texts and is considered obscure even among historical Chinese characters. In the Unicode standard, it is assigned the numeric value U+91E0 and is part of a broader effort to encode over 70,000 hanzi for digital communication across East Asian languages.
