Understanding the Roman Numeral System
The Roman Numeral Numeric System, as commonly used today, is based on seven symbols from the alphabet we recognize.
| I | 1 |
| V | 5 |
| X | 10 |
| L | 50 |
| C | 100 |
| D | 500 |
| M | 1000 |
Numbers are formed by combining these letters and adding their values. In the Roman Numeral system, a letter placed after another of greater or equal value adds. Thus II is 2 and XV is 15. It’s important to note that a letter of lesser value placed before another of greater value subtracts, thus IV is 4. This system of subtractive notation creates an easily used form of shorthand with roman numbers. Using subtractive notation the numeral VIIII becomes simply IX. 
In recent years, roman numeral jewelry has grown in popularity with it becoming an extra special way to celebrate an important date or wear a meaningful number. It makes for a thoughtful and unique anniversary gift to a loved one, and really helps to treasure a memorable moment.
