A character may have somewhat different appearances in different fonts, as long 
as the basic identity of the character is preserved. That’s what characters are:

Even emoji don’t look exactly the same in every font. Even characters in the 
Dingbats block don't.

If you require such a specific appearance for this symbol that "check them in 
all fonts" is considered necessary, then you are not looking for a character; 
you are looking for a glyph, and for that an inline image is probably the best 
choice.
