Hi Daryl,
I only found this information

 Here you go; I made these images just now ...

 I show firstly the reverse of three coins to show they are all the same. Then the obverse, with 1964 top left, 1967 normal top right, and 1967 thick rim below.
 I chose 1964 at random; could have been any year.

 The two 1967 varieties ...

same coins different angles; showing what is mentioned in the earlier link, where I of DEI points between two edge beads on the thick rim (shown on top), then the I points at one edge bead on the normal (thin) rim (shown below).

Thank you ZacUK
 Put aside  a set with rims varieties


 But going back to the others. They are both thin rims. Could the one with thin waves be a woren die or a weak pressing. I can see some details missing.


 I saw  the calm sea 1967 in swap and trades. And looked at what i thought were the rim differents on my set. Than started to go nuts. Thank you ZacUK. still need to find out about the other.
