In historical numeral systems

Egyptian

1 lotus, 2 coils of rope, 8 hobbles, 3 strokes

1 × 1,000 + 2 × 100 + 8 × 10 + 3 × 1 = 1,283. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.

Babylonian

2 corner wedges + 1 vertical wedge (sixties place), 2 corner wedges + 3 vertical wedges (units place)

21 × 60 + 23 = 1283. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.
