My my þ (thorn) has disappeared from the keyboard!

I don't know how this happened, but a month ago I lost my þ (thorn). Command "t"used to bring it up but now I only get "†" I've tried fooling around with ABC extended and US International, but it seems to have disappeared. Weirdly æ (ash) is still there, as is ∂ (eth). Any ideas?

Many thanks!

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.12

It's Option, not Command, that makes special characters on a Mac.


The normal US layout does not have þ. ABC Extended has þ on Option t.


∂ is not eth, it is partial differential for math. Eth is ð, which is Option d on ABC Extended.
