In my opinion, none of these are 1916s. The dead-giveaway for me is the rivets being very strong on the shield. Someone should have a picture comparing the 1917 and 1916 side-by-side. I had one, but have lost it.
Did not know that, Mikey07nj . I pulled up a couple of images from Heritage to compare side by side and it jumped out. So when the star is visible, it is another diagnostic.
