How on earth did this get sent for grading?  I'll say MS-65.

Nicks (obverse and reverse) and a cheek gash - MS64 - maybe 65 on a good day

first, there is no way this coin would ever grade 66. second even with these photos the steps are not even close. might be 2-3 steps tops

I can't go any higher than MS64, way too many bag hits on the obverse.

That's why they say always buy the coin and not the slab.

Actually, I'm not sure why I am even trying to upgrade if this is what PCGS says is MS66 for a 61P I have this which seems fairly similar. Yes? No?   Steps aren't bad either

Looks similar especially if it is going to be an album coin. Why spend extra money?
EDIT: And it even has better steps than the MS66

Makes absolutely no sense to me, glad I don't collect this series.

Thanx everyone for the comments and feedback! Don't know why I struggled with this one. Easy Return on the graded one even though it only cost me less than $20.
I have a feeling there will be some other tough years as I work into the next couple decades of Jeffersons.
