What 𑪢 means
It marks the text's ending; it is not a spoken word.
Zanabazar designed the Soyombo script in 1686 for writing Mongolian, Sanskrit, and Tibetan. It appears chiefly in Buddhist texts, manuscripts, and inscriptions.
This terminal form is also labeled cintamani or candamani. Other Soyombo punctuation marks—tsheg, shad, and double shad—mark shorter divisions; terminal marks close a whole text.
Is 𑪢 Mongolia's Soyombo emblem?
No. The emblem is a different Soyombo head mark.
The mark with a crescent, sun, and triple flame is Mongolia's national Soyombo emblem and signals a beginning; 𑪢 marks a text's end.
How do I type 𑪢?
In Keyman Soyombo keyboard 1.0, press #, then 2.
The Soyombo encoding proposal presents a representative glyph as illustrative; fonts may draw its calligraphic form differently. If a blank box appears, try a font with Soyombo coverage.
Formal, script-specific punctuation: it belongs at the end of Soyombo text.
Mongolia's emblem is the head mark; 𑪢 is a text-ending mark.

𑪢\11AA2Why is 𑪢 a box on my screen?
fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
