Common mistakes

Wrong: MCM1X

Is MCM1X the same as MCMIX?

No. MCM1X has the digit 1 where the letter I should be, so it isn't a Roman numeral. The year is MCMIX.

Wrong: MCMXI

Is MCMXI also 1909?

No. Swapping the last two letters turns a subtraction into an addition: MCMXI is 1911.

Wrong: MDCCCCIX

Why not MDCCCCIX?

A symbol repeats at most three times in a row. The standard form uses subtraction: MCMIX.
