I bought a 1981 proof set. Can someone please let me know for sure if these are type 1 or 2? Hopefully the pictures aren't too bad. (In order, dollar, half, quarter, dime, nickel, penny) If any of the pictures are too fuzzy, let me know and I can try again.

All the sites I have seen, including the one you linked show both ends as somewhat "bulbous". From the images I am pulling, the top looks bulbous, and the bottom, not so much.

I thought all the images were the same coin. The nickel one looks interesting. The rest looks like type 1. Better images might help?

Thanks!

A closer shot of the mint marks would help.
