Hi Experts,
I had stored away some of my coins and recently found that I had a 1981 S proof set. There seems to be some confusion as to value, regarding type 1 or 2. The mint mark is very sharp but very tiny and my eyes are not so good. I live in a small town with no local coin dealers that I could rely upon to answer this.

I can send a closeup photo on this if it would help to clarify this.

Thanks in advance for any info here.
