Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+2163 "" Roman Numeral Four is part of the Number Forms block, specifically the precomposed Roman numeral symbols, and represents the number four using the classic Roman notation of "I" before "V" to indicate subtraction (five minus one). Unlike a simple sequence of two separate uppercase letters, this single codepoint is intended for use in contexts where Roman numerals should maintain consistent typographic spacing and alignment, such as in clock faces, lists, or formal outlines. Its inclusion in Unicode allows digital text to accurately and portably represent this numeral without relying on font-specific ligatures or manual spacing adjustments.
