Under AACR2, the practice was to qualify the number with "(first sequence)", "(second sequence)", etc., when a given page number could belong to more than one sequence of pages. I think it could still work under RDA, e.g.:
300 $a 4 unnumbered pages, 85 pages 500 $a "Published to commemorate XYZ"--P. 2 (first sequence).
