    This is some variant of Uncial Gothic, I’m guessing, but I can’t find a version online that has the differences. I would redraw but the rubbings from the marker are terrible.

    My concern is only with the “2” and the “0” since we are only inscribing “2020.”

    Has anybody seen this exact version? Thanks in advance!uncialgothic

    Hello, this is in all likelihood hand-drawn or perhaps a custom letter set. During the early 1980s there were no digital fonts available to the industry, and only two Lombardic Uncial style alphabets available to the monument industry as physical lettering sets or metal sheets.

    If you need only a ‘2’, a zero, and a dash, this should only take a few minutes to match, as you have all the information you need on the stone. If you’d like help feel free to utilize the matching service: https://www.monumentletteringcenter.com/product/cemetery-inscription-matching-service/

    Decided to have them bring the marker to the cemetery I work at so I can have better access to it. I’ll be able to redraw from there. Thanks for the info.
