The letter B has very sharp serifs, looks like it can be written from a novel or comic book. I love how geometric the number 2 looks, very unique.
The A is a sans serif I like the way it looks I feel like it being metal it makes it more unique and pop out more. I believe the B is a regular serif very classical and fun.

The letter H and I are both serif because they have an extra line attach to them. But on the other hand only number 6 is a san serif type because it has a clean finish with no extra stroke.
The L is clearly a sans serif as it does not have any serifs. To me, because of its simplicity, I can see this being commonly used for bodies of text. The M is a serif and I like it because, although it is a serif, it has a display-like feel to it through its artistic nature. I feel like I would see this typeface style for a tattoo shop. The 8 uses consistent contrast, which makes me assume that it is a sans serif.
The letter J is probably sans serif with rounded brackets, the letter K i thinks is sans serif too also have brackets. Th number 7 looks straight but i thinks is sans serif typeface because the serif at the end.
The letter L is a san-serif type. The M appears to be a serif type. I really like the way the M looks. It looks like a blackletter/gothic font. It is very interesting and the red color makes it stand out more. The number 8 is a sans-serif type.
The letter P seems to be the only serif typeface since at the bottom of the letter it has a line. The letter Q and number 0 are both san sertif typeface.
I think that the R is very unique to it’s style. It is not something that is commonly seen in advertising. The letter itself is skewed because of how condensed the top part looks. The S is a sans serif that is bold and fits in a box-like shape.
The letter V is a serif type that can be used in newspapers. The letter V is a san serif type that can be used in children’s books.
