I was tought typical French copperplate at school which would have demonstrated all of your cursive features. However I rebelled against this fairly rapidly, though some features persist. A rapidly scribbled round of quick brown foxes reveals the following -
I do my 'g' essentially in figure of 8 format such that the downstroke originates from the left rather than the right of the top loop.
I tend to top-link to letters with rising strokes, eg 'the' will have a connection between the bar of the 't' and the top of the 'h'.
My numeric '1' has the serif-like top tick, but generally not the bottom horizontal unless I'm trying to disambiguate for people who don't put crossbars through their 7s!
