Looks like OBV2 to me.
Hairline and chin are the markers.
Full pics of both sides would be very helpful here please.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Definitely need some better pictures to determine your "I" question. I 100% agree with DBM the chin, hairline and ear all clearly point to obv 2.

The bough and leaf side you refer to is the reverse of the coin. All 1881 dimes have RT1(Reverse Variety 1). What we are looking at is the obverse(the side with the head) which in this case is definitely Obverse 2, the more common of the 2 Obverse varieties for this year.
