Common mistakes
Wrong: MCML1V
Is MCML1V the same as MCMLIV?
No. MCML1V has the digit 1 where the letter I should be, so it isn't a Roman numeral. The year is MCMLIV.
Wrong: MCMLVI
Is MCMLVI also 1954?
No. Swapping the last two letters turns a subtraction into an addition: MCMLVI is 1956.
Wrong: MDCCCCLIV
Why not MDCCCCLIV?
A symbol repeats at most three times in a row. The standard form uses subtraction: MCMLIV.
