I like the blue outline within the letter N. It reminds me of a typeface in a store or laundromat. The letter O looks like it can be in an advertisement. The number 9 looks like some sort of product packaging. All these letters are sans serifs.
These typography examples—dynamic and modern (‘9’) has a bold and rounded design with a slight italicized angle, giving it a sense of movement and energy. This typography would work well in branding for businesses that want to convey trustworthiness and dynamism, such as technology companies, sports brands, or product packaging. The clean and versatile (‘O’) Its uniform, circular shape provides a sense of balance and harmony. This style of ‘O’ would be suitable for corporate branding, educational materials, and informational graphics, where readability and professionalism are key. The bold and assertive (‘N’) form with a slight outline that adds depth. This letter style would be ideal for bold signage, posters, or branding materials that require attention-grabbing text. It could be used in contexts where a message needs to stand out, such as advertising billboards or campaign signs.
I think the both letters N and O are serif type because seems so straight, also the number 9 is serif too but looks a little bit italic serif.
I enjoy the roundness of the Q. You can tell that it is a sans serif and it is used in a light variation of the font. I like the P’s script-like feel; you can tell it is supposed to be script because of the contrast in the lines and it has a bit of a slant. The 0 is a sans serif, as its contrast stays even all around the number.
The Q”s lines looks a little thin, also is serif because is so straight and follow that format. In my opinion the letter P is Sans serif, also is italic type. The number 0 is straight too so means is serif and its lines are a little more thick or bold.
The letter q is a sans serif font. It is slightly thin. The letter p seems like it is handwritten. It could be some type of a script font. The number 0 is a san-serif type. It appears to be rather tall in height.
The letter is a serif can be found on store shops. While the letter S is a san serif and probably found on those old shirts or cereal box.
