Consider "numeral" ?

The numeral is the written representation of the number, but good luck with explaining that. It's like if you write "dog" on a paper, there's likely no dog on the paper, even if there is one there gnawing on your leg.

Literally, "numeral" is a type of word, denoting only quantities.
