What 顉 means
It describes lowering or moving the head or chin.
Traditional Chinese dictionaries gloss 顉 as lowering the head; other entries also record nodding or shaking the head, or a curved chin. The component 頁 points to the head, while 金 supplies the sound.
Literary and specialist; it suits classical-text reading or a deliberate discussion of the character.
Alone, 顉 does not settle whether the head is lowered, nodding or shaking, or the chin is meant; use the sentence around it.

1Why does 顉 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.
