Calligraphic letter “F” in 15th century gothic style more
Black-letter (Old English) letter “F” from English gothic Letters, 15th Century.
The doubled “f” to indicate a majiscule, or capital, letter, fell out of use probably by the end of the 16th century, except for its use at the start of some English family names.
