16 quantien
"q" noun "last day of year" YEN or "full year" VT46:23. The latter gloss also turns up in PM:quantien"full year" = yén, a period of 144 solar years PM:126; pl. quantiéni, PM:127. Since the latter meaning comes from drafts for the LotR Appendices that did not make it into the published LotR, it is difficult to tell whether it is canonical.
