[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 2130820, member: 46237"]I recently picked up a stunning uncirculated 1885KB Hungarian copper krajczar with luster to spare. I'm definitely sending it in to NGC in my next submission, but I'm debating sending it to NCS first due to the pinhead sized spot of corrosion in the center of the shield on the obverse. At 19mm, this is not a large coin, so the spot is barely noticeable to the naked eye. I almost never collect classic copper, but this is an exception as it's for a Hungarian 1867-1916 type set I'm working on. So, my question to those with more expertise in copper than I: Do you think this coin would benefit from NCS conservation or would you leave it alone, and why?
