These are apparently the only two fonts in the "Calligraphy" category
on the site out of ~330 that have correct glyphs. This is probably the
most misdesigned letter ever. :(

This applies to letters in "typewritten" fonts. The cursive form of Ł
looks very much like a pound sign.

ł looks different in cursive / script fonts - the stroke is horizontal
and on top. Be sure to check out the examples further down the page.
Furthermore, almost all publicly available cursive fonts have an
invalid glyph for ł, even some commercial ones. Correct cursive glyphs
can be found e.g. in the font "Elementarz" available on
dafont.com
(though note that the stroke in ł in that font could be a little
longer).
