The Roman numeral representation of 499 is CDXCIX, which can be broken down as follows: CD (400) + XC (90) + IX (9).
Nowadays 499 in Roman numerals is now considered to be CDXCIX but the ancient Romans would have simply worked it out as ID meaning 500-1 = 499
In accordance with today's rules it is CDXCIX But the Romans themselves in the past probably wrote it out simply as ID (-1+500=499)
