An obscure request, but I am trying to locate this font used on buildings around the UC Berkeley campus. Any advice or similar fonts appreciated.

Beaufort  Suggérée par donshottype 
Classic Roman  Suggérée par donshottype 

Would have been custom designed by or for the architect in 1909 -- non-standard use of Roman Numerals, usually written as MCIX.
AFAIK, no matching digital font.
A few digital fonts, like Beaufort, have low contrast strokes and similar flared tiny serifs. It could be used to approximate this alphabet, but IT IS NOT A MATCH.

Leg on _K_ and _R_ is similar to Monotype's Classic Roman.
