A math book I'm studying uses a symbol and I'd like to be able to reproduce it. I used detexify to search for it, but was unsuccessful. Most likely it is the letter 'a' in some font I'm not familiar with.
Here's a zoomed in image of the symbol:

Since you appear to be using a bitmapped font from last century that costs money, here’s a modern equivalent. You can use whatever other TrueType or OpenType font looks better to you, but this version will automatically scale the font you select to the same height. You might want to choose it as mathscr instead, or use mscript for compatibility with the MathTime Pro package.
documentclass[varwidth, preview]standalone
usepackageunicode-math
defaultfontfeatures Scale = MatchUppercase
setmathfontfacemathcscrDobkinPlain.ttf
begindocument
vector space (mathcscrA) over (mathcalF)
enddocument
The font I used is available here.
If you want to use the original symbol, I recommend loading usepackage[scr = mtc]mathalfa with an appropriate scrscaled = factor to make the font the right size.
