What 𗬢 means
It means “firm” or “solid” in Tangut.
The Tangut, or Xixia, script was commissioned by the Western Xia state in 1036 for state writing, diplomacy, and translations of Chinese and Buddhist works. 𗬢 is one word in that system.
A 1149 Buddhist book’s postscript (an end note) uses 𗬢 in a wish for the state’s four regions to stand firm and peace to remain unshaken. Tangut Buddhist printing continued in 1247.

1Why does 𗬢 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.
