Bugger. You need to try it first to see how badly the damage affects the view. It may not be as terminal as you think. Other wise there are several companies that recoat mirrors (all over east I think?). Try this before you attempt to buy a new mirror as I expect it would cost almost as much as the scope. When you get it fixed you might want to see if you can get something like this.

These are for the meades but someone must do something similar for the SW. Best bit is you do not need a screwdriver.

Good luck
