U+1017E "𐅾" Greek Three Obols Sign is a numeric symbol from the Ancient Greek Numbers block, representing a monetary value of three obols in the premodern Greek currency system. An obol was a small silver coin, and three obols constituted a half-drachma, making this sign a convenient shorthand for recording sums in financial and commercial inscriptions. This character was typically used on papyri, ostraca, and stone texts to denote specific amounts in transactions, taxes, or wages, reflecting the practical accounting needs of the Hellenistic and Roman periods. Its inclusion in Unicode allows scholars and digital typographers to accurately represent these historical financial notations in modern electronic texts.
