What Is the Negative Circled Sans-Serif Digit Ten Entity?
Negative Circled Sans-Serif Digit Ten (➓) is the Unicode character at U+2793 in the Dingbats block. It looks like a white sans-serif 10 on a filled circle and is common for high-contrast step markers and rankings.
Remember
Character ➓
Unicode U+2793
Hex entity ➓
Decimal ➓
CSS escape \2793
Named entity (none)
All of these produce the same glyph: ➓. Prefer the Unicode character (or its entities) when you need that filled sans-serif circled look; type plain 10 when you only need a normal number.

Neg. Circled Sans-Serif Ten using HTML Code: ➓
Neg. Circled Sans-Serif Ten using CSS Entity: ➓
Typed directly: ➓
How It Works
1. Hex:U+2793 → ➓ in HTML. The browser turns it into ➓.
2. Decimal: same code point as 10131 → ➓. Same result as hex.
3. CSS: use \2793 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ➓ after the paragraph text.
4. Typed ➓: fine in UTF-8 pages. All four lines show the same dingbat digit.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with Negative Circled Sans-Serif Digit Ten entities.
Named?
No named entity
HTML5 does not define &negcircledsans10; or similar. Use numeric forms.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\2793 belongs in CSS. ➓ / ➓ belong in HTML.
➓ vs ❿ vs 10
Different characters
➓ is U+2793; ❿ is U+277F; 10 is two ASCII digits.
Fonts
Check the glyph
Dingbat support varies by font. If ➓ is missing, use a fallback font or CSS badge instead.
Semicolon
End references
Always finish with ; — write ➓, not ➓.
