This appears to be a mixed lot to me, but I don't have that much experience. I'm looking for some second opinions...

SBA 1D:
1981-Proofs-Type-I-Or-II

5C:
1981-Proofs-Type-I-Or-II

1C:
1981-Proofs-Type-I-Or-II

10C:
1981-Proofs-Type-I-Or-II

25C:
1981-Proofs-Type-I-Or-II

50C:
1981-Proofs-Type-I-Or-II

The dollar and the nickel look like the Type II. Great find!
Rest in Peace

I agree the SBA and 5c are both type II. The bulbous serifs and the flat top are what I look for. The type 1 mm come to a point on the surface. The type II are "flat" on the surface.

Thank you for your opinions, help, and welcome! Much appreciated. My father-in-law picked out a proof set at a show from my birth year for $4. There was piece of paper tucked inside the cardboard mint box that said "Type II" on it. Never had too much of an interest in modern coins... until now.

Thanks for being pleasant and helpful.
