Are you talking about a GUI terminal or a regular tty?
What is being used in the tty can be seen with showconsolefont -i. The font alias will be displayed, it will most likely be code and it will most likely be Fixed. By the code here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_(typeface) you can find out which variation is used.
You can look at the FONTFACE variable in /etc/default/console-setup
