C-u C-x = for these three give

∀: xft:-unknown-TeX Gyre Termes 
Math-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1 (#xEFE)

a: xft:-unknown-Ubuntu Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1 
(#x44)

𝔏: xft:-unknown-Latin Modern 
Math-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1 (#xD99)
