What 鍽 means
It is an old character glossed as 金編.
In court and Daoist writing, gold-threaded slips appear beside jade documents as images of prized texts.
The Yupian, a Chinese character dictionary compiled around 543 CE, records the gloss; this dates the dictionary, not 鍽's first use.
Should I send 鍽 alone?
Only if the reference is already clear.
Otherwise, it can look like a typo, unfamiliar name, or font failure.

1Why does 鍽 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.
