    I would say 70/30 - depending on the corners, I would say you have a good chance at an 8 with no q's.

    I'm hoping for even a small chance....there are no 8's or 9's currently.
    This is the best centered I've found. The corners and printing is much better than the pic is showing.

    i was gonna say the same..70/30 however is that also a tilt i see as well??
    Good for you.
  • DhjacksDhjacks Posts: 343 ✭✭
    Maybe a smidge of a tilt, but mostly o/c both ways. I appreciate the input.

    I get 40 / 60 left to right, and 34 / 66 top to bottom.

    Hard to tell for sure from a scan,
    but there appears to be too much wear on the upper right corner for an 8.

    I get 37 /63 side to side, 36/64 top to bottom. heres atrick. open the image in paint , then place your cursor on 1 edge and drag. you will see the cursor position listed at the bottom so you know the exact measurement and can calculate it that way.
  • I agree that corner does appear to have a little wear that might mess its chances for an 8 up.

    I'm working on that 'paint' method, thanks. Sounds like I've got a chance. Just for kicks, here's a better pic of the corner. The corners are actually pretty solid, though the scan still looks dark in this corner
