Common mistakes

Wrong: MCMXXV111

Is MCMXXV111 the same as MCMXXVIII?

No. MCMXXV111 has the digit 1 where the letter I should be, so it isn't a Roman numeral. The year is MCMXXVIII.

Wrong: MDCCCCXXVIII

Why not MDCCCCXXVIII?

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

Wrong: MCMXXIIX

Why not MCMXXIIX?

Only one smaller symbol can come before a larger one. The standard form is MCMXXVIII.
