1979-s and 1981-s proof set question update

Could someone post some photos of the clear and filled S varities? While going through a few sets, I found 2 types of S for the 79. One is clear and the other is boxed in. I found only 1 type for the 81. The s on the 81 is like the clear s of the 79. Any hepl would be appericated.
Thanks
John

    Turns out all 10 1981 proof sets have the type 2 Anthony dollar and Jefferson nickel. I took one to a local coin show this morning and a dealed offered $145 for it. Are the prices listed for type 2 1981 sets for just the 2 coins or do all of them have to have the type 2 mint mark?
    Thanks

    It's the SBA that has a big premium for being type 2. The cent
    also has a very significant premium. There is also a premium for
    the set but it has to be entirely type 2 to get it.
