I really only clicked on this thread to say that when someones looking for a font expert & there is already a reply by Fred... well, it's obviously not worth the bother to look in on another solved mystery... but I guess Fred proved me wrong this time.
I can't solve the mystery either, & what i found may be no better... or even far worse then other wrong answers you already found, but I saw that Fred mentioned a different resource, so I tried
www.whatthefont.com & found one font that has some reasonable close similarities to that one character. I know a lot of my clients would accept something close if I'm adding copy to fit in with an existing look... rather then needing to redo an existing logo with an exact match.
So, in a case like that maybe you could add an outline to this:
