What is a satisfactory way to typeset ℕ in the Mathematica notebook?
$begingroup$
I am familiar with typing:
escintsesc
escrealsesc
to produce:
(when typing inside a DisplayFormula cell).
How would one typeset a similar looking ℕ ?
I have tried [DoubleStruckCapitalN]
but this produces a different looking result:
(ℕ (an N in "Blackboard Bold" font) is used to refer to the set of all natural numbers.)

With Ctrl+Shift+E you can check that :reals: produces TemplateBox[{}, "Reals"]. Then you can take a peek at its DisplayFunction with:
CurrentValue[{StyleDefinitions, "Reals"}]
{ TemplateBoxOptionsDisplayFunction -> (StyleBox["[DoubleStruckCapitalR]", ShowSyntaxStyles -> False,
FontFamily -> "Times"] &),
TemplateBoxOptionsInterpretationFunction -> ("Reals" &),
TemplateBoxOptionsTooltip -> Automatic}
So the answer to your question is the FontFamily:
Style["[DoubleStruckCapitalN]", FontFamily -> "Times"]
Update:
In addition to that it is worth mentioning PositiveIntegers, NonNegativeIngeters and all family of combinations of sign+domain.
So depending on context you can use :nnint: or :pint: for natural numbers:
Those TemplateBoxes have additional benefit, they have interpretation so while Style["[DoubleStruckCapitalR]", FontFamily -> "Times"] looks nice, :reals: looks nice and represents Reals you can use with symbolic math.

You can always Bold it with ctrl-b.
Change to Traditional form with ctrl-shift-t to get the same as reals.

Wow. I don't have have a site to show you, and I don't know what is going on, but except for the last one which isn't bold, they all look identical to your reals. Its a bracket in front of the R in all cases, not an I with serif. I enlarged the cell to make sure. I just figured it out. Inputform is different, but change to traditional form, it looks like yours.

Pretty close. I have Traditional form as my standard output form which I guess is the cause of the confusion. its getting close to 3 am my time so I'm done for awhile

So depending on context you can use :nnint: or :pint: for natural numbers:
