Good morning. I know my images aren't the greatest. I am just hoping some of you can give me a "Ballpark" grade. Minor blemishes only appear in pictures...

try this and see if it helps if you are using a phone

1. turn off flash
2. place coin on flat surface with indirect natural light. maybe a window sill in a cloudy day
3. move phone about 3in from coin
4. zoom in using you fingers until the coin comes into focus
5. hold phone steady. if you cant then place something on either side of the coin at that distance and lay phone on top. this will hold it steady and allow you to zoom and take the photo without any blurring

Yes, photos--while 'physically' large--are a bit soft (or low resolution) which makes it difficult to evaluate surfaces. That said, the coin likely falls in the high(er) AU range. Good album hole filler until better comes along.
Rest in Peace

Sorry , I can't give you a grade with those photos . A ballpark call would be AU-55 .

This is a nice coin for it being from 1966. AU-54, but still a value of one cent.
