How can I recover accidentally scratched off Apple Gift Card codes?

I recently purchased an Apple Gift Card, but unfortunately, while trying to scratch off the code, part of it was accidentally peeled off and is now unreadable. I still have the physical card, the original purchase receipt, and photos showing the damaged area and the back of the card, including the serial number.
