Base Twelve Calligraphic Numerals

Here is an image of rationally designed featural numerals for base twelve in a calligraphic pen style that was made yesterday well before six o’clock in the evening, based on principles worked out last year. It is possible to use versions of these numerals with a liquid crystal type of modular display containing twelve segments. There are references to Indo-Arabic numerals, Chinese numerals, and Roman numerals in these designs.

This is not a serious proposal for replacement of decimal numerals, for which a better distinguishable against decimal set more similar to the usual Indo-Arabic numerals and based on the normal seven segment modular display such as is used in pocket calculators was proposed earlier.
