I have original PCB's ranging in size from

4.5" x 6" Arcadeshop MultiWilliams

to 17" x 29" Atari System 1 (Roadblasters)

Most are somewhere inbetween those 2 extremes.

What do you think is the most common size?

You're question is kind of like "what size are cars on the street"?  You have hondas and you have 18 wheelers.

It would be more helpful if you pointed us in some direction... such as manufacturer, or jamma pcbs, something of that nature.

Most PCBs are 9"-12" wide and 12"- 15" long. But there is a lot of variation.

There is no real "common size" though. I have about 50 PCBs and very few of them are the exact same size as any other ones.

That's all I really need.  Some sort of "average" size.  Paige, the ranges you've given help a lot.

The only board I have is a Gigawing Capcom CPS system that is about 11x16 or so.

They are all different, and on top of the size difference some of them are also stacked, so there's a THICKNESS difference. I think
