Expert Reply:
You most likely will have a 60 degree cone. That is the most common. I included a picture that shows where the 60 and 90 degrees are being measured. It can be hard to tell with the naked eye unless you have one of each next to each other to compare.
I have included a second picture that shows the two side by side. The taper on the 60 degree is steeper since the angle is less compared to the 90 degree.
