I'm mainly looking for sans-serif letters that have have a slightly worn, broken-in quality (like wood or lead type that has seen better days). Also, they should be readable at smaller text sizes. The example that I've attached has slightly rounded corners. I'd appreciate any recommendations for similar typefaces as well.

The FontFont Dirty Faces packages have lots to choose from: (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and FF Blur has a few variations.

Both Red Rooster�s Tempo Medium Grunged and Gothico Antiqua by Test Pilot Collective are quite nice too.
