Dice Symbols: types, meanings and practical differences
Unicode includes all six die faces plus related game pieces for probability and tabletop writing.
Pieces, suits and dice. They suit notation, scores and match reports. That amounts to 11 copyable values here — 11 of them one character long, 0 longer.
Names such as Die Face-1, Die Face-2, Die Face-3, Die Face-4 appear here, and counting every entry puts Die Face-1 (1), Die Face-2 (1), Die Face-3 (1) at the top. Single-character values span U+2680 to U+1F3B2.

Counted from the stored set
Where dice symbols sit in the code space
Counted across U+2680 to U+1F3B2, the general-category split is symbol 11.
How the official names cluster
Counted across the stored entries, the commonest name patterns are Die Face-1 (1), Die Face-2 (1), Die Face-3 (1).
Sequence construction
Of the sequences, 0 rely on a zero-width joiner and 0 on a variation selector; 1 code points is the longest single entry.
How to choose the right form
Watch out for White Draughts Man next to White Draughts King. They are different characters: U+26C0 and U+26C1. Symbol is the safe default at 10 entries.
Only reach for emoji or pictograph when the narrower sense is the point. Colour or no colour is the first choice: 1 emoji, 10 plain. Test the result in the real app before you use it.
The six classic die faces are standardized text symbols. The colorful game-die emoji is a different character and may not show a predictable rolled value on every platform.

Dice Symbols explained in plain English
Short summary
This page has 11 dice symbols to copy. 10 of them are symbol. They come mostly from one part of Unicode: Miscellaneous Symbols. 10 are plain text. The other 1 are emoji, so your phone or computer draws them in colour.
How the 2 groups divide
Expect symbol and emoji or pictograph. 10 sit under symbol.
Encoding, and why coverage varies
They come from Miscellaneous Symbols (10) and Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs (1). Across U+2680 to U+1F3B2, support gets patchy at the newer end.
The pair people mix up
Compare White Draughts Man with White Draughts King. Same shape, different code point.
Emoji entries behave differently
1 are emoji, mostly from Activities. The device picks their colour.

A quick choice checklist
- Match the meaning. Start with symbol when that group fits your message.
- Read the name. Compare Die Face-1 with Die Face-2 before you pick by shape.
- Test the result. Paste the full value into the app, document, or profile where it will appear.
Die faces are fixed values, not randomizers
Unicode die-face characters display one through six. Copying a face records that value; it does not perform a fair random roll.
| Forms | Stored meaning | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| ⚀ ⚁ ⚂ | Die face one, two and three | Probability examples, tabletop notes and fixed diagrams. |
| ⚃ ⚄ ⚅ | Die face four, five and six | Scores and illustrative outcomes. |
| 🎲 | Game die emoji | A pictorial die whose visible face may differ by platform artwork. |
| ⛀ ⛁ ⛂ ⛃ | Draughts or checkers pieces | These are game pieces, not additional numbered die faces. |
Practical note: Use a tested random-number generator for an actual roll. A copied die symbol is static text and should not be presented as random evidence.

How to use dice symbols
Copying stores text, so the value survives the clipboard intact. Paste it with Ctrl V, ⌘ V or your device's Paste command.

Scores, rankings and achievements
When handling scores, rankings and achievements, the 10 symbol entries are the obvious pool, and let visual weight settle the final choice.

Typing dice symbols without copying them
If you would rather type than paste, the codes below are what you need — the decimal value for Windows, the hexadecimal for Word and macOS.

| ⚄ | Die Face-5 | Alt 9860 | 2684 | ⚄ |
| ⚅ | Die Face-6 | Alt 9861 | 2685 | ⚅ |
Alt codes need a physical numeric keypad and stop at U+FFFF. 1 entries here sit above that ceiling. Each platform's method is spelled out in the keyboard guide.

How dice symbols render across fonts, apps and devices
About 91% come from Miscellaneous Symbols. The rest come from Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs. 10 act like letters.
They take the colour of the text around them. The other 1 are emoji. Your phone or computer paints those in colour.
Unicode files the emoji ones under Activities. The newest here arrived in Emoji 0.6. Older phones show a blank box instead.
A pasted entry is redrawn by the receiving application's font. Expect small differences in width and weight across devices, and larger ones where a font lacks the character entirely.

Dice Symbols questions and answers
What is the difference between White Draughts Man and White Draughts King?+
Different code points, similar shapes. White Draughts Man sits at U+26C0 and White Draughts King at U+26C1, so search, sorting and screen readers treat them as unrelated characters even where they look the same.
What is the HTML code for die face-1?+
Write ⚀ (hex) or ⚀ (decimal) to get ⚀. Numeric references sidestep encoding problems in older toolchains.
Which dice symbols work as plain text rather than emoji?+
10 of the 11 are ordinary text characters. They take the colour and weight of the surrounding font, which suits documents, code and interface labels. The other 1 are emoji and arrive as colour artwork you cannot restyle.
Which Unicode block are these dice symbols in?+
Chiefly Miscellaneous Symbols, which accounts for 10; the rest come from Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs. That matters because a font either supports a block broadly or barely at all.
Will these dice symbols work on older phones?+
The newest entry on this page was introduced in Emoji 0.6. Devices that have not received a font update since then will show a blank rectangle instead. Test on a real older device before using a recent character where the meaning matters.
Which dice symbol should I choose?+
Watch out for <b>White Draughts Man</b> next to <b>White Draughts King</b>. They are different characters: U+26C0 and U+26C1. <b>Symbol</b> is the safe default at <b>10</b> entries. Only reach for emoji or pictograph when the narrower sense is the point. Colour or no colour is the first choice: <b>1</b> emoji, <b>10</b> plain. Test the result in the real app before you use it.
