Unicode identity and rendering notes
BLACK LARGE CIRCLE is encoded as U+2B24 in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block. In HTML you can write it as ⬤; in CSS generated content you can use \2B24; and in JavaScript strings you can use \u2B24.
The copied character is plain Unicode text, so its exact shape depends on the font, operating system, and whether the symbol is rendered as text or emoji. Use the official Unicode name and code point when you need to distinguish it from similar dot symbols.
