Angled terminals like your _V_ are found in the lowercase of Jenson Oldstyle designed by J. W. Phinney of the Dickinson Type Foundry in 1893,

but not in the uppercase. Now available as LTC Jenson http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/lanston/ltc-jenson/
The terminal style was popular circa 1900 and it was used in the uppercase of some lettering designs. Some digging might turn up a digital font with the _V_.
