Have you tried using the corner coordinates and centre to georeference the image. I assume the corner & centre coordinates reported are correct and in LoXX ? There is an example of how to do this in the first reply of this stack exchange post:
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/38987/how-can-i-add-all-the-4-corners-as-gcp-in-an-image-that-i-want-to-reproject <http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/38987/how-can-i-add-all-the-4-corners-as-gcp-in-an-image-that-i-want-to-reproject>
Hope that helps!
