Glyph origin

A 幽(ゆう)霊(れい)文(も)字(じ) (yūrei moji, “ghost character”) 60-57 present in the original JIS X 0208 specification as a result of bad digitalization methods. It is not attested in Japanese, being rather a misreading of 橦. (Nonetheless, the character itself is real and if the Japanese had not requested its inclusion in Unicode, it would still have been included because it is used in Vietnamese.)

Kanji

槞

(Hyōgai kanji, shinjitai kanji, kyūjitai form 櫳)
