Hope to find out what this font is, or something very similar.
It comes from Sears (Roman Coins books) and is used to denote the writings on roman coins. Preferrably a font with greek letters in same style.

i tried http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ and it gave me linotype charon medium as the closest match but its not quite perfect imho.

Thank you, seems to be a perfect hit :-)
do you know if there is some font (or if is it included in Albertus) with the greek letters in same style (the romans used both types of letters in same word sometimes and i'd like a consistent "look")
