Can you count?

Below are the glyphs for numbers in my upcoming Weavesong world (the language is called Logos). There is a logic in the glyphs. Can you solve the question mark?

44

Edit: Looks kinda like a Base 4 number system, expressed across 3 rows.

0, Left (1), Right (2), T (3), 4 moves to the next row

When you get 4 more, the original 4 on the left gets bumped to the right.

Repeat; bumping to the next row when necessary.

Looking at this again, it's a very inspired form of a base-64 counting system (i.e., the largest value a single glyph can represent is 63, at which point you'd need a second glyph, or some kind of other visual indicator, to denote a number above that). I can't help but be reminded of Maya numerals.
