Accidentally hit a choke coil with my soldering iron… how screwed am I?

*sigh* Of course, the last capacitor I needed to replace on my first repair I’ve been working so hard on, I accidentally singed one of the coils connected to pin 6 of a 6T8 socket in my Stewart Warner TV. According to the schematics, it’s the choke coil rated at 15 ohms. It looks pretty burned/black sadly… I believe these coils NEED insulation so… I’m curious if rewinding this is even doable knowing how thin the wiring is. Any ideas how to fix this possibly?
