There is a font called "ScaleDegrees" in Windows and "Times + Musical"
in linux and Mac which I use when writing about music because its
specialty is having the digits 1 thro 9 with a ^ over each digit - used
to refer to scale degrees in melodic analysis. It also has nice glyphs
for sharps, flats and naturals.

It is available free from Matthew Hindson's website :

It should be relatively easy to transform the glyphs with the ^ over
them into a glyph with an overline. Looks like it could be accomplished
using FontForge which is an open source font editor. Downloads available
for Windows, Mac and linux :
