Unicode details

୨ is the Unicode character named ORIYA DIGIT TWO, code point U+0B68, in the Oriya block. It was added in Unicode 1.1 in 1993, and Unicode classes it as a digit (general category Nd).

It is not an emoji, so it keeps the colour and size of the text around it.

It comes from the Oriya block, which some fonts leave out, so a few older devices may show an empty box.
