that's worth saving just for the kool factor incase you need a smile in the future
who needs to swim in some mineral oil...."he does" for a couple months
that's like xf-ish...high au obverse i'd say
congrats
I'd soak that coin in olive oil for a while to see if some of that corrosion will come off.
Too bad about the corrosion. I'd probably treat it with Verdicare to stabilize anything active. But I don't think it will do much for the coin.
Worth saving? Sure! Don't spend it. Give it to a YN, sell on ebay or stash it.

<< <i>Is it something worth sending to NCS? I'm not sure of the value here... I guess I need to reesearch it. Has anyone had a coin like this and was successful in removing this stuff? >>
You can't remove it. The damage is done. It is definitely not worth sending to NCS.
But VerdiCare (nee Verdigone) will tame anything active.
It's a cool find but not worth much in its condition.

I would say worth about $5.
