Could some please help me identify this typeface? I am also wondering if there is a term used to describe this type of A?

Previous discussion, remaining unsolved. My conclusion: custom job based on Times New Roman by Radim Pesko
As for the A with the "v" shaped crossbar, it was used in the 19th century for various fonts* but did not have a specific name. In his patent for a font with this feature in 1881 Heyer merely said that the cross-line was "bent down in the center." It's most familar use in modern fonts is for heavy decorated fonts such as Algerian and Gold Fever.
I like this font as an elegant and restrained design which should be effective for formal communication with a touch of individuality. Unfortunately, I don't recognize it.
