These days, an online type specimen is a web site.
Before that, in print, I was always fascinated by type specimens as literature.
In other words, well written.
(So, not the kind of foundry where every face is touted as an “elegant workhorse” or some such thing.)
There are quite a few online sites that fit the bill (I try), but it would be hard to top Klim, which is also richly interactive.3 -
The Internet Archive has more than a few.1

“Online type specimen” sounds like online-first or online-only, like the ones Grilli do. Is that what you mean?1

In my opinion, Grilli Type is doing the best website specimens these days.0
