I think perhaps you are confusing reverse with obverse.
The monarch or rulers or hero's portrait is always considered the obverse.
Think of "heads or tails", "heads" is always the obverse regardless of where the date is.
Where there is no "head" the date side is called the obverse.
1978 1cent obverse has "large beads".
In 1979 a new obverse matrix was created, along with a completely new set of beads, there is no variety of beads, only one size and placed farther from the edge than those of previous years.

"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...
