Coelacanth, a free Venetian based on Centaur, comes in many weights and optical sizes; it’s a work in progress, and the developer’s site is benwhitmore.altervista.org.

Here’s a sample for comparison:

usepackage{fontspec}
setmainfont{Coelacanth Bold Brevier}
linespread{1.10345}

While we’re on the subject of free Venetians, Ralph Levien is working on Museum (levien.com/type/myfonts/museum.html). It has no bold, but its optical sizes may be useful to you.
