What 𐄫 means
It means ten thousand in Aegean numeral notation.
These signs derive from Linear A, a script first attested on Crete by the end of the nineteenth century BCE. Linear A coexisted with Cretan hieroglyphs, another Cretan writing system, before becoming predominant. The numerals recorded commodities, measures, and totals; related signs also appear in Linear B administrative records.
Some lower-value forms occur with the Cypriot syllabary, an ancient system for writing syllables. Their connection to Cypro-Minoan numerals, from another ancient Cypriot script, is uncertain.
Historical and specialist; ordinary quantities are clearer as 10,000.

1Why does 𐄫 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
