Mirrors that are like you are describing are very popular now -- it makes them look truly old. You might use an antiquing finish for the frame and leave the mirror alone.
I tried to scrape off all the backing from an old mirror, and made a big mess! It would have looked better if I had left it alone.

You can't fix it, you would have to get it resilvered and that would cost more than the mirror is worth. I agree that the look in mirrors is now the tarnished and worn look instead of new and shiny.

Ladies,
You can also use stinky chemical stripper to get the silvering off and put a thin new mirror behind it.
