Common mistakes

Wrong: MCMXXX1

Is MCMXXX1 the same as MCMXXXI?

No. MCMXXX1 has the digit 1 where the letter I should be, so it isn't a Roman numeral. The year is MCMXXXI.

Wrong: MCMXXIX

Is MCMXXIX also 1931?

No. Swapping the last two letters puts the smaller symbol first, so it subtracts: MCMXXIX is 1929.

Wrong: MDCCCCXXXI

Why not MDCCCCXXXI?

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