Roman numerals can go as high as possible using special symbols. If you put a horizontal line above a number, it means to multiply that by 1000. However, this usage is not current anymore due to Roman numerals normally representing dates and other smaller numbers. Right now, the only Roman numerals commonly used are as follows:
I - 1
V - 5
X - 10
L - 50
C - 100
D - 500
M - 1000
