What does bold gamma mean?
It marks a mathematical distinction, not one fixed value. 𝚪 is a separate encoded form of Greek capital Gamma; keeping the bold letter distinct lets a formula preserve differences between symbols.
In some physics and engineering notation, bold letters mark vectors—quantities with both size and direction—but the field or equation supplies the exact meaning of 𝚪. Greek writing uses plain Γ; this special mathematical form is intended for equations and technical text.
Greek capital Gamma belongs to an alphabet adapted from Phoenician, an older writing system. Phoenician gimel is an ancestor in that letter history; 𝚪 takes its base from Greek Γ.
Mathematical and context-dependent; the equation or field supplies its meaning.
Do not assume it means a vector; that depends on the notation.

1Why does 𝚪 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.
