    Save the fact that upper case letters are written larger, how many of the letters of the alphabet are the same in upper and lower case form?

    C c K k O o S s U u W w X x Y y Z z.

    Nope. Not U or Y. At least not in this font.

    This is an ambiguous question because it is font dependant.

    You could also argue against K because the lower case k has a slightly longer back.

    I don't ever recollect seeing a lower case k without the leading stroke being taller.

    I got 8:
    Cc Oo Pp Ss Uu Vv Xx Zz

    I based this on the way I form letters, I didnt include W because I write the lower case with curves on the bottom, an upside down m. I also write lower case U without a downstroke.

    Trying to remember back to when I was taught how to print on the cave walls, I come up with only 6:

    Our lower case w had points rather than being rounded, but the center peak only came up half to two-thirds of the way.
