Common mistakes
Wrong: CCMVIII

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so CCM doesn't work. 800 is DCCC (500 + 300), so 808 is DCCCVIII.
Wrong: DCCCIIX
Why isn't 808 written as DCCCIIX?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 808 is DCCCVIII.
