Looks like a grease filled die, with incomplete details on the lettering of America
Unless I am missing something, it looks to be worth on 5¢

Agree with A_R. Grease filled die (struck thru grease) will cause that error.
Appears the the S in cents was also affected.
The Monticello appears mushy. Cant’t tell with your pics, could be wear or worn die.

It all depends on what you mean by "valuable"? I'm thinking maybe 100% return on your money to an error collector.
From what I can guess, grease filled, poorly struck Jefferson. 1966 business strike coins were typically poorly stuck.
I agree with you that it's UNC and I agree with the others on the grease filled die.

As above.
If it were mine I might keep it as a curiosity, but I don't think it has any real premium.
Thanks guys you as always have been very helpful

I agree with grease filled die on reverse... no real premium involved here... Cheers, RickO
