Is it worth it??? 1894 O Morgan

I recently picked up this Morgan with several other silver coins for less than melt. I was glad when I saw the date and the mint mark... but then I saw the gunk on it. :(

 

Couple of questions:

 

1. From what you can see of the coin, what would you grade it?

2. Do you think it would even slab (assuming there was no gunk on it)?

3. What do you think it is on there? It looks kind of like gum to me, but it is hard. There are some spots that feel soft though.

4. Do you think I could get this gunk off?

5. Do you think NCS could get it off? Would it be worth it to send it into NCS?

6. How would YOU try to get it off and preserve the coin?

 

This stuff is on several of the coins I got with the lot.
