Common mistakes
Wrong: MCMV111
Is MCMV111 the same as MCMVIII?
No. MCMV111 has the digit 1 where the letter I should be, so it isn't a Roman numeral. The year is MCMVIII.
Wrong: MDCCCCVIII
Why not MDCCCCVIII?
A symbol repeats at most three times in a row. The standard form uses subtraction: MCMVIII.
Wrong: MCMIIX
Why not MCMIIX?
Only one smaller symbol can come before a larger one. The standard form is MCMVIII.
