As far as I can tell, [it is not encoded](https://xiaoxue.iis.sinica.edu.tw/char?fontcode=10.E8D5). [Similar characters](http://www.guoxuedashi.net/zidian/ytz_33057x.html) do exist [but they](http://www.guoxuedashi.net/zidian/ytz_33056z.html) are not the same.

@dROOOze good to confirm that it is indeed a non-unicode character.  Any idea a way to check the meaning/what the regular version is? I checked your two links but did not see that info. (maybe I missed it I haven't used either before.)

I forgot to mention - you should not be using radicals to check characters (that's very inefficient). Try http://www.guoxuedashi.net/zidian/bujian/ which is how I found those entries.

Surely, that's a variant of 愆 (U+6106)/ (U+2039D) 'fault, mistake, error, transgression'. In fact, [GlyphWiki](https://glyphwiki.org/wiki/cbeta-15523) records exactly the variant under question as 'cbeta-15523', [CBETA](https://cbetaonline.dila.edu.tw/) being the digital archive of the Buddhist Canon, so this form has definitely been seen around somewhere in the Buddhist maniscripts.
