In historical numeral systems

Egyptian

6 coils of rope, 1 hobble, 6 strokes

6 × 100 + 1 × 10 + 6 × 1 = 616. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.

Babylonian

1 corner wedge (sixties place), 1 corner wedge + 6 vertical wedges (units place)

10 × 60 + 16 = 616. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.

Greek (Ionic)

chi, then iota, then stigma, marked as a numeral

chi-iota-stigma + keraia

chi + iota + stigma written in descending order and added — the letters carry their values wherever they stand, so this is addition, not place value.

Hebrew numerals

tav, then resh, then tet, then zayin

tav-resh-tet-zayin

The ordinary rule would give יו (yod 10 + vav 6), also a divine-name form, so 16 is written טז — tet (9) + zayin (7).

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.
