1917 would not be the date, and is possibly a manufacturer/lot number.
This is the rank insignia of an Army Specialist, (Formerly Specialist-4) and probably does not date any earlier than 1975, when bright collar rank insignia was authorized for some uniforms.
Concur with Chris-- modern rank for a spec 4.
