What 𮢥 means
A 2016 chart draft identifies this source form as 鏞, “large bell.”
An early Chinese dictionary glosses 鏞 as “large bell.” The Book of Documents, an ancient classic, pairs it with sheng, a mouth organ, in ritual music.
Where does 𮢥 come from?
From a printed Buddhist canon. SAT-04275 points to the Taishō Shinshū Daizōkyō, a collection of Chinese Buddhist scriptures printed 1924–1934.
SAT encoded rare glyphs so digital editions could preserve the collection's printed wording. This source link does not make 𮢥 the everyday spelling of 鏞.
