U+110BD "𑂽" Kaithi Number Sign Unicode Character

U+110BD "𑂽" Kaithi Number Sign is a specialized numeral symbol used in the Kaithi script, which was historically employed across North India for writing languages such as Maithili, Bhojpuri, and early forms of Hindustani. This character functions as a numeric indicator, typically placed before or after a number to denote that the following or preceding characters represent a numeric value rather than a word. It is encoded in the Kaithi block of the Unicode Standard, specifically within the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, to support the accurate digital representation of historical and contemporary documents that employ this script. Its usage helps preserve the distinct numerical conventions of the Kaithi writing system, distinguishing it from other scripts that use different number signs or rely solely on digit sequences.
