    I don’t know, but I suppose it depends on your intended purpose (for
    maximum portability I’d simply go with the bad old ascii
    hyphen-minus). Personally I like the figure dash U+2012 best, as it
    has the same width of a digit in most fonts:

    20500‒0004
    11111‒1111
    88888‒8888
