U+955A "镚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+955A "镚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a small copper coin or a piece of money, specifically an old-style Chinese coin worth one tenth of a silver dollar, often in the context of historical currency or colloquial terms for change. It is composed of the radical "金" (gold or metal) on the left and the phonetic component "崩" on the right, indicating its association with metal objects. This character is used in modern Chinese, particularly in informal speech and dialects, to denote small-denomination coins or to describe something cheap or of little value. It is a less common character but remains relevant in certain cultural and linguistic contexts, such as in descriptions of antique coinage or in southern Chinese dialects.
