'C-u C-x =' on displayable characters shows a font name in *Help* buffer:
            character: © (displayed as ©) (codepoint 169, #o251, #xa9)
    uniscribe:-outline-Noto Emoji-normal-normal-normal-mono-13-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1 (#x11)
Starting with 'emacs -Q', the font name is shown as below.
            character: © (displayed as ©) (codepoint 169, #o251, #xa9)
    uniscribe:-outline-Courier New-normal-normal-normal-mono-13-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1 (#x8B)

As for U+20E3( ⃣:COMBINING ENCLOSING KEYCAP), the glyph in "Noto Emoji"
is drawn as a 3D button. I can see visually the glyph difference from
other fonts.

I attach an HTML file noto-emoji.html, which contains characters easy to
see the difference, and screen shots of the file.

"Noto Emoji" does not have ASCII alphabets nor glyphs for characters
from U+1F641 to U+1F645.(It has ASCII digits.)

Using "Segoe UI Symbol", the characters can be displayed.

PNG files are screen shots under the following conditions.
