U2460U246F

U+2460 and U+246F are two code points in the Unicode Standard, part of the Enclosed Alphanumerics block (U+2460–U+24FF). U+2460 is named CIRCLED DIGIT ONE and renders as ①, while U+246F is named CIRCLED NUMBER SIXTEEN and renders as ⑯. The Enclosed Alphanumerics block contains various circled numerals and letters used for decorative typography, labeling, and user interface elements.

Visually, these characters appear as numerals enclosed within a circle. They are commonly used in lists, diagrams, or forms where a numeric marker needs emphasis or a compact, visually distinct indicator. Because they are characters, their appearance depends on font support; some fonts or systems may substitute or omit glyphs if the font does not include the appropriate glyphs. They are not intended for arithmetic or automatic number parsing, and relying on them for semantic data can complicate processing or accessibility.

Encoding and usage notes: both code points are separate Unicode characters and have official names as described above. In HTML and other text formats, they can be embedded using numeric character references: decimal references ① (U+2460) and ⑯ (U+246F), or hexadecimal references ① and ⑯. In practice, support for these glyphs varies with platform and font, so results may differ across environments.

Overall, U+2460 and U+246F are part of a family of circled numerals used for decorative or UI labeling purposes, distinct from plain digits and numbers, and best supported where fonts provide the corresponding glyphs.
