You are right Kat, that´s why it´s suggested.
Anay idea on the closest one?

OK, after some digging, a similar m and n are there in the OPTISybaris, Claude's Aerolite CP Two and Bob Alonso's Alexandra Script and well hidden in the alternates of the Symphony Pro and OPTISybaris Supplement. None match though. Which is to be expected with this probably hand traced/drawn sample image.

So, when in the OPTISybaris says the original is Symphony, does it mean it is the same font or inspired?

Here the link to the glyphs:

And thanks

hello , the correct font is OPTISybaris , the picture is a scan of a broken clichés printed on corrugated cardboard , overlapping the two words are equal ,
it was my mistake quote Symphony pro as correct font ,
grazie a tutti!
greetings

It means that it is a digital version of an existing typeface as is the one by Profonts which is years after Castcraft's version. Claude will know which is the name of the original typeface as his Aerolite CP Two is also a revival of that original.

Notice the different J in the Sybaris regular and bold.

Wow, thanks

@sandrolt4
It is not the OPTISybaris nor the Symphony by Profonts. Look at the details as the length of the stem of the p and the bottom of the stems of the p, m and n. The typeface as shown, from the times of letterpress, has probably never made it to the digital age but may very well be an ancestor of these two.
