What 𗫠 means
It is Tangut’s sign for ten.
The Tangut script was promulgated in 1036 for the Western Xia state and used in government records and Buddhist writing, including translations from Chinese. The earliest securely dated Tangut document is a trial record from Guazhou, in what is now Gansu, dated 1069 or 1070; the latest known inscription is from 1502. Tangut characters can look Chinese, but this one is read in Tangut. If a box appears instead, the font lacks Tangut coverage.
A historical numeral from a script used for Tangut and Buddhist texts.
It is Tangut, not a Chinese character.

1Why does 𗫠 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.
