It's fine. I've used O2 that has sat around for longer than that. Wipe off the dust, clean out the mask, and give the valve a little open blast before you hook up the hose (once you get a regulator, that is). It'll be fine.

Hello CatherineLane:
I agree with Brew, but the tanks are to be "recertified" every 10 years or so, you should see a date stamped in the metal near the top. You might look for that to see if the tank needs to be recertified.
