Roman Numeral Calculator

Convert standard Roman numerals and decimal numbers from 1 to 3999.

Standard form

Modern Roman numeral calculators usually enforce subtractive notation such as IV for 4 and CM for 900, instead of nonstandard repeated forms.

Example

2026 is MMXXVI: MM for 2000, XX for 20 and VI for 6.

Input tips

Use the standard symbols I, V, X, L, C, D and M. For conversion back to decimal, enter a valid Roman numeral rather than a repeated nonstandard form.

Limitations

This calculator uses the common modern range from 1 to 3999. Historical inscriptions can use variant forms that are not accepted here.
