Your F725 Unknown-2, to me, looks like a German SCRIPT CAPITAL S, (compare with U+2112;SCRIPT CAPITAL L). Yes, we were taught to write an S like this in school. Perhaps it's used somewhere in mathematics?
> Your F7AA Unknown-8 could then be a SCRIPT CAPITAL C. Cf. the "Ausgangsschrift" tought at German schools, viz. <http://www.dietschweiler.de/SUETTER/schrift.gif> (1915 through 1941), and <http://www.pelikan-lehrerinfo.de/lehrerinfo/shoppix/shopitem151big.gif> (1953 through now (but there have been more recent alternatives, viz. shopitem150big.gif, shopitem152big.gif, shopitem155big.gif)). I am not entirely convinced that "S" and "C" are the intended meanings. The left-hand stroke of F725 is far too high for a capital S, and also the position of the left-hand stroke of F7AA does not look quite right for a "C". Based on their code positions, I think, the F725 and F7AA characters are meant as Variants of "d", and "T", respectively. F725 resembles U+20B0 GERMAN PENNY SIGN, which is probably a script "d", derived from the Latin word "denarius". (Just add an upstroke on the left hand of the Verdana PUA character.) This is not convincing either, I know. Just my 0,02 �. Best wishes, Otto Stolz
