Default Fumbled a piston

Well since there wasn't much for football on last Saturday I sort did some on my own...

I am in the process of pulling apart a 1936 Model A diamond block engine. The bore is still standard and I would like to reuse the pistons if everything checks out. The problem is that I managed to fumble one of the pistons and it fell against my engine stand taking a couple of small pieces out of the skirt. Would using a piston with this type of a defect be troublesome?
