There are also other strange characters in there, such as:
℈ the scruple (20 grains)
☂ an umbrella
☺ white smiley face
☻ black smiley face (racist?)
♬ barred sixteenth notes
✆ telephone location
♨ hot springs?!
‽ the interrobang‽‽‽
and of course, the ever popular...
ﷺ Arabic ligature for sallallahu alayhe wasallam: may God's peace and blessings be upon him

I use the "Insert:Symbol" dialog in Word on Windows to browse through the Arial Unicode character set. Fun stuff for a type geek. :-)
