If I do, get it attributed, would you recommend the conservation service?


Definitely not, it is worth silver melt value only. It is a horribly damaged coin.

It's not only cleaned, it's badly damaged. Damage on the obverse has bulged out the reverse and distorted the whole center. You'd really be throwing money away having this graded/attributed. die clashes don't really add much value, unless it's a rare die variety it just isn't worth it.
