Position A edge lettering reads upside-down when the coin is placed heads up on a table. Position B edge lettering reads right-side-up when the coin is placed heads up on a table. Since the coins are struck and then go into the edge lettering machine in random orientation, if you check a large sample of dollars you will find that the split between A and B is roughly 50/50.
