Roman NumeralsHorizontal dash over number increases its value 1,000 times.
dash over M = 1,000,000
A letter repeated once or twice repeats its value that many times, (XXX = 30, CC = 200, etc)
One or more letters placed after another letter of greater value increases the greater value by the amount of the smaller,
