Thanks GrapeCollects and CoinHunter27
Over the past couple of months I have been CRH cents and quarters. SO, looking at these HALVES seem huge/foreign.

Is there a spread on the FG? It might narrow down the listings.

I believe your half dollar would be the CONECA listed 67 DDR-014 Stage C Obverse Die Changed. http://varietyvista.com/Variety%20M...70.htm#_1967I started to compare your half dollar photos with the 67 DDR's in my collection (I have examples of the 19 listed in the CONECA Master Listings), and I noticed the die scratches above and through the star above the R in DOLLAR in your photos matched my 67 DDR-014 Stage C Obverse Die Changed (I have the discovery coin), see attached photo. As I looked for other markers and similarities, I found quite a few, see attached photos of my half that I can see in your photos. Notching on the stars above HALF, the die gouge dot in the field right of the middle bar of E and inside the R of AMERICA, or the die gouge dot under the N and next to the star of UNITED.
