M CM LX VII
1 9 6 7
It's base is: 10
because it represents the state of an abacus (which has ones and fives for each base ten digit),
and agrees with their base ten names for numbers (using hundreds,
thousands, and so on). It is not a _positional_ system (which accounts
for the lack of a zero) but that does not mean it is not a _base ten_
system. I've somewhere heard it described as a sort of mix of bases
five and ten, but I don't think that's really significant. Essentially
it is base ten, with combinations of symbols used for each digit.
