First letter of excerpt disappears on Facebook

I need help. Other. I've been looking for the solution in support forums for long time without success.
I do not know if my problem has to do with Facebook.
In each post, I have Simple Shared Buttons plugin. When I want to share a post on Facebook, appear (as always) outstanding image, title, excerpt, meta ... Well, in many posts disappears the first letter of the excerpt, in others not.
As a result, apart from the obvious aesthetic, is that the beginning of the text is not well understood.
I have tried several plugins to share on social networks and the same thing happens. I have disabled all the plugins and the same thing.
Any ideas? Have you ever known such a case?
Thanks and greetings.

I kept searching and found the solution by chance.
The Facebook crawler does not take into account the characters with the Dropcap tag.
The solution, in case someone has a similar problem: disable dropcap and ask the Facebook crawler to debug the entry at https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/.
Glad you found a solution - thanks for posting it! :)
