Why is there no ms-66 grade in coin books?

Because MS-66 is an odd grade. The difference between an AG-3 and G-4 coin are clear. The difference between a MS-65 and MS-66 coin are not too clear and are very subjective. One man's MS-65 is another man's MS-66. Also, especially for early coins, MS-66 coins are almost unknown, or fetch extreme prices. For most coin books, there's no need to include the entire tier from MS-60 to MS-70 because the grades there are so subjective. 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.
