Han ideograph 𨮾

35775/42720

𨮾 is a written variant of 鑄, the Chinese verb for casting metal. The 1716 Kangxi Dictionary says the Ming-era Chinese dictionary 字彙 (Zìhuì, 1615) already labeled it a nonstandard form. Related standard forms are 鑄 in traditional Chinese, 铸 in simplified Chinese, and 鋳 in Japanese.

Why does 𨮾 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
