Explanation of first line:
flf2 - "magic number" for file identification
a    - should always be `a', for now
$    - the "hardblank" -- prints as a blank, but can't be smushed
5    - height of a character
4    - height of a character, not including descenders
15   - max line length (excluding comment lines) + a fudge factor
0    - default smushmode for this font (like "-m 0" on command line)
14   - number of comment lines

Where it stands

This design is not one of the generator's shipped styles. It is cataloged here as a reference specimen, rendered from the held file.

font.lol showcases this font for reference and does not distribute the file. FIGlet font files are not downloadable from font.lol.
