What 𗋡 means
The gloss “crystal” belongs to 𗋡𗍥, not clearly to 𗋡 alone. A Tangut dictionary gives that translation for the two-character compound. Its entry does not establish a separate meaning for the first character.
What writing system is 𗋡 from?
Tangut is its own script, shaped by Chinese and Khitan writing traditions. Khitan was another script used in the region.
Western Xia created Tangut writing around 1036 to serve the Tangut language and the state’s identity. The earliest recorded example is an official military document dated 1072. Tangut writing continued after Western Xia fell in 1227.

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.
