You have to know the coin's denomination to locate the mint mark because it can be in different places. Also, Philadelphia did not use a mint mark on most coins until 1980 so many 1916 coins won't have mint marks.

You can check many sites to find mint mark positions listed by year and denomination. A good one is coinfacts.com. It's no longer updated but the information for 1916-date coins obviously won't have changed.

What is a mint mark under the eagle?

A mint mark tells where the coin was minted, for example, a P mint mark (or in some cases no mint mark) signifies the coin was minted in Philadelphia, D is for Denver, S is for San Fransisco. I'm assuming someone told you that the mint mark was under the eagle for whatever coin you had, so you simply need to look under the eagle to find a mint mark. Keep in mind that some coins were produced in the Philadelphia mint and have no mint mark.
