I'd say that you've picked up a bargain and it is what it is, a relic, and with history.
When my Jap helmet arrived from Japana few years ago it appeared to be untouched since WW2 and therefore I have left it like that. (At the time it made economic sense to buy the helmet from Japan and pay the shipping and taxes etc rather than buying one in the UK
but it may be different now.)
