Thanks, Mark.  PostAntiqua does a pretty good job, IMHO.

I'm typesetting some madrigals from book 2 of the Musica Transalpina.  Part of one of them has the passage attached.  This looks like a brief 3/2 passage that reverts to 4/4 (or their perfect/imperfect mensural equivalents).

I'd like to use a font for the signature that has this characteristic 3 shape.  Can anyone suggest one, please?

For free I find Post-Antiqua:
