We had a big discussion today about Roman numerals. This came from an inquiry question ... What is on the obverse and reverse sides of the Olympic medals?
We found out that this is the 29th Olympic games and this is written in roman numerals on the obverse side of the medals as XXIX.
2008 is MMVIII
