What 䑺 means
䑺 is a historical variant of 帆, meaning “sail.”
In 997, the Chinese character dictionary 龍龕手鑑 calls 䑺 an ancient form of 帆. A Chinese character reference also quotes a stone inscription by Tang writer Han Yu, where a favorable breeze sends a sail on its way; Japanese kanji references give the same sail meaning.
Use 帆 in ordinary Chinese writing; keep 䑺 when transcribing a historical source or preserving its spelling.

1Why does 䑺 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.
