Here is another piece of evidence that I saw in the animated pictures that makes me think it might be 1916. Look at the bottom right of both the 6 and the 8. The bottom of the 8 is very close to the ribbon, and the bottom of the 6 is much further away. In my coin, the bottom of the digit appears to be more spaced from the ribbon, making it a 6. Any thoughts on that?

Gosh this is so difficult. Now after seeing Aahz's gifs, I am second guessing myself.

Let's look at the mintmark on each example as one poster said.

Here are some for 16-S:

Now 1918:

Now my coin:

My-Latest-Buffalo-Nickel-Haul

It does kinda appear that my example is more consistent with the 1916 size/position. Any thoughts?
