To determine if a coin is graded MS-66 (Mint State 66), you should examine its surface for luster, strike quality, and absence of significant marks or blemishes.

MS-67 is the "grade" of a coin. MS=Mint State and Mint state is the highest Grade given to any coin that has been in circulation. The 67 is the actual grade of the coin and the scale goes from MS-60 to MS-70.

The answer is that the average person can't. "MS" is a grade meaning "Mint State"; i.e. the coin is uncirculated and in the same condition as when it was minted. That grade is further broken down into 11 sub-grades ranging from MS-60, the lowest acceptable condition that can still be considered Mint State, all the way up to MS-70 for a coin that is in absolutely flawless condition. To assign a specific grade within MS, an appraiser requires special training. They have to look for particular details on each type of coin and combine them to assign the numerical grade. Those items might be as specific as the sharpness of the lettering or how the hair on a portrait appears. Normally the major numismatic societies employ a staff of professional graders. Even with their training decisions can still be subjective so it's sometimes necessary to have a coin evaluated by more than one agency.

The difference between a MS-63 and MS-65 may be quite easy to see, same with a MS-65 and MS-67 but the difference between an MS-65 and MS-66 are very slight.
