Where 14,443 fits
Why 14,443 is special
It defines a card that draws its power from the reader's own field, which is why a contactless card needs no battery and never runs out. The working range is deliberately a few centimetres so a card cannot be read across a room.

1 × 10,000 + 4 × 1,000 + 4 × 100 + 4 × 10 + 3 × 1 = 14,443. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Systems that simply cannot reach this value are left out. Where a script needs a font most readers do not have, the reading is given instead of the glyphs — see number systems for each system in full.

ISO/IEC 14443 specifies proximity cards operating at 13.56 MHz with a range of a few centimetres. The short range is a security property, not a limitation: a card must be presented deliberately.
