Weiss used to be willing to do non-US stamps on a case by case basis. You will have to ask him to see if that is still true. However, on non-US stamps, his certificate does not carry much weight because he is primarily considered an expert on US stamps. Unfortunately, most of the other alternatives usually tack on an additional charge as a percentage of catalog value.

I think it would be wiser to see if you have a Siberia 8 (or any other "normal" surcharges from that set) and compare the surcharge numbers/sizes.

Jeff-

This site has some examples of 8 and 8a listed for sale (with scans). Maybe this will help you get an idea for yours...if you remember ratios from math class, you should be able to figure out some measurements:
