U+10148 "𐅈" Greek Acrophonic Attic Five Talents is an ancient numeral symbol used in classical Athenian accounting and inscriptions, representing a monetary value of five talents. The term "acrophonic" refers to the system where numerals derive from the first letter of the word for the number, and in this case, the symbol is a ligature of the Greek letter pi (for "pente," meaning five) and tau (for "talanton," meaning talent). This character belongs to the Ancient Greek Numbers Unicode block and was employed primarily for financial records on stone and papyrus, reflecting the sophisticated numerical notation of Attic Greece before the adoption of alphabetic numerals. It is now preserved for historical and scholarly purposes in digital text encoding.
