    Cool coin!
    It's made of iron (looks almost like silver, but iron is what it is) - argh, that would be a tough one to detect.. image

    I can't see the mintmark (small, beside the tail of the eagle) - the 1918E is slightly higher valued than the others (none of them are over $1 in Very Fine condition in year 2003 Krause though) . Here are the mintages:

    1918A: 223,516,000
    1918D: 29,130,000
    1918E: 23,600,000
    1918F: 24,598,000
    1918G: 12,697,000
    1918J: 20,240,000
