U+20BD Ruble Sign

U+20BD was added in Unicode version 7.0 in 2014. It belongs to the block U+20A0 to U+20CF Currency Symbols in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Currency Symbol and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script.

The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it is written as end of a European number, e.g., a currency symbol, from left to right. When changing direction it is not mirrored. U+20BD prohibits a line break after it, if it is followed by a number. The glyph can be confused with one other glyph.

The CLDR project calls this character “ruble” for use in screen reading software. It assigns these additional labels, e.g. for search in emoji pickers: currency.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

The ruble sign, ₽, is the currency sign used for the Russian ruble, the official currency of Russia. Its form is a Cyrillic letter Р with an additional horizontal stroke. The design was approved on 11 December 2013 after a public poll that took place a month earlier.

In Russian orthography, the sign almost always follows the number (the monetary value), and in many cases there is a space between the two. In English orthography, it usually precedes the number.
