I have a map that includes the scale as a representative fraction and with a decimal(see attached photo) as 1/41436,6. This is an 1891 Russian government nautical chart.
I calculated the scale and the 414,363 is approximately correct.
The MARC record will not allow me to list the scale in the 034 as 414363.6.
Possible options as I see it:
Option 1
034 414363
255 Scale 1:414,363.6
Option 2
034 414364
255 Scale approximately 1:414,364.
500 "Masshtabʺ 1/414363,6 ... ."
How would you catalogers handle this?
Thanks.
Angie
