I've been trying to collect samples of 15th-century scribes who used this particular shape somewhat habitually. I have found a number of them, but I often don't look at what I have until I've been gathering them for a few years, so I do not always know what I have until I sit down and study it. It's possible there are some regions where the curved shape was more common than others.
I was careful, when I sampled them, to distinguish between the v'sus (v[er]sus) apostrophe and a more general shape, since the "er" apostrophe (the one that sometimes is drawn as a squiggle or smoke shape) is also sometimes drawn as a simple curve shape.
