I got 4 1981 proof sets today. I am wondering how to tell clear and filled s on them. I did not understand my Red Book on this one. Should I start a new topic to identify them or is there a comparison image of them? Would thee required images be only of the mintmark? Thanks in advance.

P.S I will post images as soon as I know what to post.

The mintmark is enough to determine the variety. This is one of the hardest things for me to determine. I hurt my eyes until I give up.

I forgot to take a photo of the nickel. The mm looks the same anyway.

same as which. I think that the dime is a type 2 and the others are type 1.
