If it's a jacket that contains nylon in the fiber then your pretty much toast. The burn will look shiny and flat compared to the rest of the fabric if it's nylon. These are the only stains and burns I've dealt with, beyond that, I haven't a clue. Good luck man! Sorry I can't really help too much.

you could patch it but that may look worse than the burn itself

I would try maybe putting a patch on the inside that is the same color, so it just overlaps on the inside not the outside? It should work alright if you find the right color, i did this with my gray orage pants and it worked alright. hope this helps
