Type 2?

In going through my proof sets, it appears from my research I have a type 2 1981 set (also a 1979 but will create separate post on that one).
Before I start cracking sets, can anyone offer guidance if I’m right or wrong here?
Thanks in advance.

    It's a type 1. On a type 2 the surface of the 'S' is flatter, and the S itself looks more squashed vertically.
