Thanks for putting the style file as an attachment. I don't know
why this didn't occur to me :)

Have you tried numbers above 100? In the current implementation,
\Alphfinal and \Hebrewnumeralfinal produce an initial letter
if no hundreds digit is present, so you only see their effect
starting with 120 (qof-"-finalkaf). It works for me, even with
\pagenumbering{\Alphfinal} (lots of \newpage commands...). I'm
not sure if this is the desired behavior, but this is what the
package does at the moment.
To change this behavior, remove the command \@gim@finalfalse from
line 119 in the style file (together with the surrounding braces).
Here's a copy of lines 116-119.
% otherwise, this is the only letter: force it to be non-final
% (lone final letters are not allowed---is this the accepted
% convention?) and print x' if we print apostrophes, x if we don't.
\else{\@gim@finalfalse#2}\if@gim@apost'\fi\fi%
What the desired behavior should be depends on how years without
hundreds are traditionally written. Since A.D. 1290 (he' nun') was
the year when the expulsion of Jews from England took place, there
must be plenty of references to it in Jewish sources. It's just a
matter of tracking them down and finding out if they used initial
or final nun.
