How do I add a symbol in html?

I want to add a back link in html. Because my code makes a link open in a new tab I made my code close the current code. So I typed this:

      <a href="javascript:window.close();">↩ Back</a>

But it shows up with this: ↩ Back not this: ↩ Now I'm wondering if you can't actually put symbols on to html.

If anyone knows the answer I will be very happy.
