It's the reverse lettering that is thin on yours rather than the thick.
You have the Type 2 or thin lettering shown above.
The Type 1 1976 Ikes are generally found in lower grades and were minted in smaller numbers as compared to the Type 2 coins.
This is the more common of the two in clad IKES and heavily circulated.

I found these images on PCGS, although they are proof images, the lettering is the same on the clad business strikes.

I agree the OPs coin looks to be a Type 2, thin letters.

I have had the impression that type 1 bicentennial Ike were minted in
1975 and the Type 2's in 1976.

Every 1975 mint set I have seen were type 1, thick letters.

Always good to see new interest in Ikes.

As said above, you have a Variety 2.

This is correct (although I believe there have been some that slipped through) and is the same for the 1975 and 1976 six coin proof sets.
