And then, there are also the historical example of ideographic numbers 
used for the same purpose in historic texts (like here 
http://sns.91ddcc.com/t/54057, here 
http://pmgs.kongfz.com/item_pic_464349/ or here

).

The above has been found with a quick google search, and I have no idea 
whether these symbols were used in the running text or not.
