I think they are both type 2, I believe I can see the remains of the chain mail on the shoulders. Are there 3 stars under the eagle on the reverse?

Yes there are . So what year are ya thinking maybe ?

So not 1916 ? Thanks for the awesome tips!!

buy a REDBOOK

I'm not sure what it is

It will help you find where mint-marks are, oddities, etc, etc.

Awesome. See all this is so new and not ever been a part of my hobbies. Thanks for being helpful.

A red book will also help you to SELF-GRADE your own coins to give you an idea of what condition grade of your coin. I would call it our encyclopedia to coin collecting.

SLQ in any condition are very nice to have in your collection!

With the internet I would think everything one could learn from buying a red book could be had for nothing online. Google is everyone's' friend.
