  FEW:  nonaginta 7,187a Gdf:  nonante 5,522a GdfC:  nonante 10,207b TL: nonante 6,773 DEAF: ∅ DMF:  nonante  TLF:  nonante  OED: ∅ MED: ∅ DMLBS:  nonaginta 1927c
nonant,  nonaunte;  nunante,  nonaunce,  novaunte (l. nonaunte)  312.4  

The form nonaunce is probably a scribal misreading of nonaunte in the original source, but the Royal 1.C.III manuscript clearly has a ‘c’ and not a ‘t’.
