What 㞢 means
㞢 is an older written form associated with 之. Later Chinese dictionaries place it under 之.
Early oracle-bone divination inscriptions include 㞢 in passages about rain or wind, with readings recorded as 有 (“have”) or 又 (“again”). A Chinese dictionary of character variants also cites the Wei Yuanpi Stele, an inscribed stone monument, in its written-form record.
Should I use 㞢 or 之?
Use 之 in ordinary modern Chinese. Keep 㞢 when reproducing an older written form; for oracle-bone examples, use the surrounding passage because the recorded readings differ.
The typeface determines 㞢's displayed shape. If a font cannot show it, your device may display a replacement box; that is a display limit, not a different character.

1Why does 㞢 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.
