cjk unified ideograph-2dff5

Spear character variant

4422/7473

𭿵 is a documented alternate form of 矛, the character for a spear or lance; read it with 矛’s meaning, not as a separate word. A 1746 Kyoto edition of 續一切經音義, a Buddhist reference book explaining terms in Buddhist scriptures, consistently prints 矛 in this form. The character 矛 itself is a pictograph of a spearhead on a long shaft.

Why does 𭿵 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.
