I’d probably pick schwa (ə).

While it’s true (as many others have pointed out) that the ampersand (&) was once considered the 27th letter of the English alphabet, it’s not the only letter that’s been dropped from English, and it’s definitely not the letter I would pick.

The first alphabet used to write English was an Anglo-Saxon version of Futhork, a runic alphabet which contained 29 letters and was arguably better for writing English than our modern alphabet:

ᚠ ᚢ ᚦ ᚩ ᚱ ᚳ ᚷ ᚹ ᚻ ᚾ ᛁ ᛄ ᛇ ᛈ ᛉ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛖ ᛗ ᛚ ᛝ ᛟ ᛞ ᚪ ᚫ ᚣ ᛡ ᛠ

f u th o r k g w h n i y eo p x s t b e m l ng oe d ah a y io ea

Futhork had separate letters for TH and NG as well as a separate letter for the W sound. (The letter W hadn't been invented yet in the Latin alphabet.) It also had ten separate vowel letters instead of five, which was a much better match for the many vowel sounds of English. (Most dialects of English have between fourteen and sixteen distinct vowel sounds.)

The first recorded sentence that is identified as English was written on a gold medallion in the Futhark alphabet:

The text is transcribed as follows:

ᚷ‍ᚫᚷ‍ᚩᚷ‍ᚫ ᛗᚫᚷᚫ ᛗᛖᛞᚢ

gægogæ mægæ medu

In case you’re interested, this is usually translated as "The she-wolf is a reward for my kinsmen", but the she-wolf was actually an image on the medallion, rather than one of the words. The sentence actually breaks down as follows:

ᚷ‍ᚫᚷ‍ᚩᚷ‍ᚫ gægogæ [a battle cry or incantation]
