On older Nooks there is an issue with covers not displaying if the attributes are in an order Nook doesn't like. Calibre's Edit Book tool checks for this error. I just downloaded the compatible epub version of https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/edgar-allan-poe/short-fiction and it has this error, probably all your books do since you use the same toolset.

Nook compatible version
<meta name="cover" content="cover.jpg"/>
Please update your tools to generate a compatible attribute order if possible.
Thanks!
