The two serif strokes of the 2 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
seem to be descending 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
into the letterform (and there are 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
two strokes for the number 2). 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
I decided to use three strokes 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
(derived from the serifs) to define 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
the number 3. I rounded the 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
ends of the strokes to soften the 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
form a bit.
