Common mistakes
Wrong: MCCMLXVIII
Why isn't 1868 written as MCCMLXVIII?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so CCM doesn't work. 800 is DCCC (500 + 300), so 1868 is MDCCCLXVIII.
Wrong: MDCCCLXIIX
Why isn't 1868 written as MDCCCLXIIX?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 1868 is MDCCCLXVIII.
