Is this a Lincoln 1979 s Type I or Type II cent?

These are the best pictures I could find. Do you know if the coin in the middle has a Type 1 (filled S) or Type 2 (clear S) for the mintmark?

If that is the best picture you can do, try looking here http://lincolncentresource.com/San_Fransisco_Mintmark_Styles.html

 

Thanks RLM, I've been leaning towards a TY 1. At a distance, the TY 2 almost has an italic look to it, while the TY 1 appears to have straight vertical sides. Of course it would be much easier to determine if I had better pics. I was hoping I could fill my TY 2 album hole with it, but I'll just keep looking.

The most distinctive differences I see are the curve on the bottom tail and the completely round holes on the type II
