I would like to know if all years of the Sacagawea and Presidential "gold" coins are minted in both A&B positions?

I'm a new member, so if this question has been asked and answered before, please bear with me and tell me how to find those posts.

Edge lettering really isn't a new idea. It was used on some os Sasin Gaudens' coins and of course is on the 2009 UHRDE (raised as opposed to incuse). I like the fact that making use of the plain edge for some of the coin's data allows the devices to be enlarged. I think it enhances the look of the coins.

I don't mind the edge lettering, I just wish they would put the date and mint mark where you could see it (preferably not on the edge).

But what confuses me some about these "types" is, there is two different types of types. 1st type = Type A & B; 2nd type = Type 1 & 2. And they are different from each other. Type A does not = Type 1. So, which is which and what is what?
