Two-page spread: which page number?

I got a batch that's in a table that spans both pages, but the pages are individually numbered (699 in the top left corner, 700 in the top right corner).

The field helps are no help: "If there are 2 page numbers, index the number closest to the corner of the document." That's not talking about this situation at all, and there's no way I'm getting out a ruler to see which number is closer to its respective corner.

So which number should I put in the Page Number field?

    Does the page number field allow 699-700? Do the PI examples help? Please share batch code or at least the project name - maybe others have the same question or a suitable answer

    Huh: it seems to be willing to take "699-700". Didn't think it'd accept punctuation like that.

    This is the latest part of the Slovakia church books project. The title is in Slovak, which I don't speak (I have to look up which is which between M and Z Every Single Time), so I'm not going to try typing it.

    I'll probably give up and submit long before the question gets fully answered, but it's Batch ID M914-M68.

    (Y'all have a little bit of time, because I'm currently stuck on deciphering the first person's age: I can see that it's something and six months, but I haven't figured out the something.)
