What 𫒽 means
It is recorded as another form of 鎣. The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary compiled around 100 CE, defines 鎣 as a vessel. Other dictionary entries give 鎣 senses related to a metal polishing tool, polishing or decorating, and mining iron.
One bronze 鎣 is described as a ritual vessel: it held fragrant liquid to pour into wine. These old senses come from the written record for 鎣; use the surrounding sentence to tell which reading suits a particular 𫒽.

1Why does 𫒽 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.
