Common mistakes
Wrong: MCMLXXXV1
Is MCMLXXXV1 the same as MCMLXXXVI?
No. MCMLXXXV1 has the digit 1 where the letter I should be, so it isn't a Roman numeral. The year is MCMLXXXVI.
Wrong: MCMLXXXIV
Is MCMLXXXIV also 1986?
No. Swapping the last two letters puts the smaller symbol first, so it subtracts: MCMLXXXIV is 1984.
Wrong: MDCCCCLXXXVI
Why not MDCCCCLXXXVI?
A symbol repeats at most three times in a row. The standard form uses subtraction: MCMLXXXVI.
