Wondering what the slab serif face that is used for the word "money"

Thanks!

You can approximate this probably custom lettering with Stymie. The Black weight is closest except for the y. Oddly, the Black y is different from the other weights. I think if you added stroke to the Bold weight you would be able to fake it. The M is also a bit different, crotch-wise, but you could edit it or ignore the difference.

I think you're right. That is pretty close. I modified some rockwell (made a new "e," shortened the serifs, tweaked some other points) and got it close enough.

Thanks
