Very interesting question!
I've always made estimates for all
four coordinates. (Which reminds me -
it would sure be a good idea if
method of finding coordinate values -
e.g., transcribe off map; estimate from
lat/long values on maps but not on 4 corners;
estimate from another map; etc. - were
in the catalog record; we could use
a note, I know, but it seems to me it
would be a better idea if the method
actually appeared associated with the coordinates.)
