What you're talking about @nss-52 is 'expected value', which is the value of all possible outcomes times the probability of each. Lotteries are notoriously low expected value. As you suggest, the concept isn't really relevant for matching serial numbers. The reward here (if you're into such stuff) is just finding matches given how unlikely and labor-intensive it is, not really worth anything from a payout perspective.

@ the SerialFlorist (my last try)
Your math is really bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4th grade math:
in case of 100Million, I do own 7000 $1 bills that means 0,007%.
If we are partners, and You own 7000 $2 bills that means
0,007+0,007=0,014%...(not 50/50).
The good news, collectors need money not math...:-)))
Love You Bro!
