Try the link below. The 1979 Type 2 is the same as the 1981 Type 1. There is also a third type for 1981 that is not illustrated. Hope this helps:

Richbeat, there is NO recognized Type 3 for the 1981 S Lincoln proof cent that I am aware of. Please provide more detail. Thanks, Steve

There is no such thing as a Type 3!

According to FrattLaw, there is a third type. JoeHolt also has noticed three types. I've read several threads that mention this. Here's a link to the most recent one:

Steve:

You're right in that it's not recognized (yet.) I'm going by what the threads say, and Fratt and others say they've seen three types. It would be interesting to see pics of all three, side by side.
