Is there a symbol for potential equality?

Solution 1:

The most common usage I have seen is

$$a \overset{?}{=} b$$

Usually its context I've seen is before you're trying to prove that they indeed equal or something of that matter.

Solution 2:

The Unicode symbol ≟ can be used for questionable equality.
