3That is the regular notehead. The upward and downward stems follow the convention for writing multiple parts, or voices, on the same staff. Google for multiple voices or multiple parts notation for examples. Alternatively, this question music.stackexchange.com/questions/76880/… shows another example.– user48353Mar 24, 2019 at 0:07
