You have given a valid reason for restoration...it has already been reblued. This is particularly true if it did not receive the proper reblue, i.e. salt blued rather than rust blued as USMC has pointed out. An authentic rust blue restoration will return it to the proper appearance and will enhance the value somewhat.
