I'd leave it as is. The patina gives it character, and by removing it you'd only be tampering with it, which some people can be very fussy about. I personally think it looks fine.

The eagle has dropped from it's original place.
That's the issue. Measure it from the wingtip to the top and you'll see the difference.
Leave as is because if you move the eagle up you'll have the same problem just now under the wing.
