You mean a superscript th, like in 1st etc? You normally adjust the baseline…

As you can probably see from how this page displays it, some rendering can be butchered (that 1 is meant to be the same size as the other text). Some fields within apps will also fail to use that styling too.
If there are characters that can be typed they should be findable in character viewer…

I think they are always 2 standard characters with an adjusted baseline though, copy & paste from your favourite word processor is my advice.

I checked through quite a few fonts, and none of them have a th superscript as a pre-built glyph. Usually, it's just 1, 2, 3 and n. Helvetica Neue had the most.
But as Drew said, you either have to manually shift the baseline (and a typical superscript is usually also a smaller point size), or see if what you're doing your editing in has Superscript/Subscript buttons. Apps such as Word do.
Thank you so very much. I love a quick and easy answer.

Great, glad it helped.
See if anyone has a better answer, I may have missed something but that seems to be the way to do it.
