    sets can be all type 1 or type 2 or a mixture of both

    I think of type 1 being pointed top and type 2 being flat top
    (the type 2 frequently look like inverted mintmark)
    the first nickel is the only one I am pretty sure is type 2
    for me it is easier to determine with loupe at an angle
