New Old English was triggered by 2 Victorian coins, the mid 19th century gothic crown and gothic florin, which included a gothic script lowercase with quite contemporary looking, brief ascenders and descenders enabling it to fit snugly around the queen's head or heraldic concept. With thicker hairline strokes than normal Old English, a less sharp, warmer feel than lettering scripted with a pen, and circular instead of rhombic punctuation, this font is an effort to catch the round-cornered softness of the die-struck lowercase blackletter. To increase harmony and homogeneity in between the cases, the uppercase is narrower and easier than is popular, without the extreme width or old-fashioned flamboyance of the standard blackletter. It may even enable text set in capitals to look acceptable.
