What words backwards are also correctly formed Roman numbers ?




1444
1666

1626 = MDCXXVI
How would that fit?

It wouldn't, that's why I asked to show the whole grid. Now I guess Try wasn't working with Roman numerals.

After your remarks earlier, I have looked for mistakes in my puzzle but so far all looks OK. So any ideas, Mark?

I did not use vertical clues I, II, IV (I didn't understand them).

Previously, I hadn't noticed that each number could not repeat a digit.

Do try again (pun intented)
