Default Quick Pasta Question

We threw out the pasta box before I was able to get the serving size off of it (we keep it in a glass canister) and was wondering if someone could tell me how to 'eyeball' measure a serving of dry pasta? It's angel hair wheat pasta. I don't have a scale to use either, so if someone could give me some kind of estimate (dime size? quarter size?) that would be so helpful, so that I don't have to cook it and then measure it into a measuring cup. Thank you!
