this is the symbol I am looking for, ℉
If you have a character (like your ℉ which you pasted into your question) without leading or trailing whitespace, you can paste it into a Writer document or into a Calc cell and subsequently hit Alt+X. This will show you the unicode in hex. Try it with ℃ (e.g.). A next Alt+X should revert this representation to the character.
