Back in olden days, I enjoyed paging through the Letraset catalogue with pages upon pages of strange typefaces. Today, of course, all that can be found on the web. At Linotype you can search through their font catalogue and you can even write your own test sentence to see what it would look like in this or that font. This is Duc de Berry™:
On the other hand, if you already have a sample text and would like to know what it is (so that you can buy it, for example), Identifont will ask you lots of questions about what the characters look like and then suggest some fonts which may contain the one you are looking for. (It took 13 questions to get a set of 24 fonts which had Duc de Berry in tenth place.)
