What 𒐯 means
It counts three large-number units called šaru. The sign belongs to Mesopotamian base-60 numeration.
The broader cuneiform accounting tradition reaches late fourth millennium BCE proto-cuneiform, where signs tracked goods and measures. Cuneiform was later used by Sumerian, Babylonian, and Assyrian scribes.
Specialist: used in cuneiform numeration and metrological records, which track measures.
Don't treat it as an ordinary modern 3.

1Why does 𒐯 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.
