Can anyone tell me if these are Type 1 or Type 2 Proofs of 1981?

Looks like Kennedy half, Washington quarter, and I think an SBA dollar. If they are all 1981 Proofs,I'll leave it up to someone more knowledgeable than myself to try to determine them. All I know is the clear S has bigger openings on the S than the filled S, and bulbous serifs on it. No idea how to really tell them apart though. The SBA looks like type 2s I've seen to me, a novice at them of course.

The important and valuable one is the SBA dollar from the set though if type 2. The rest are a couple bucks difference.
