HO 24113 — license plate combination

HO 24113 is filed as a generated example of the Illinois sequential passenger serial — AA 99999 (2 letters + 5 digits). Letters HO sit in positions 1, 2; digits 24113 sit in positions 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. This page does not identify a car, an owner, or a live registration. It measures how the string sits inside a published character map of 67,600,000 slots, adopted in this atlas from 2001 after ABC 123 and Abraham Lincoln stacks.

Disclaimer. HO 24113 is not published here as a real vehicle or plate record. It is a generated example of a serial map for teaching and testing.

Illinois format in brief

Illinois exhausted earlier three-letter blocks and opened a two-letter plus five-digit series. Vanity and land-of-Lincoln specialty plates sit beside this serial, not inside it.

Letter-first three-letter strings such as SPR 9932 are not the current Illinois passenger map. Full essay: Illinois license-plate format.

Combinatorics for HO 24113

Alphabet size 26 × the digit slots in AA 99999 produces 67,600,000 serials. Rank 19,624,113 is about the 29.0298 percentile of that space (0 = first serial, 100 = last).

Why someone might look up HO 24113

UseNote
Vanity researchPeople compare a wanted phrase against the sequential map so they can see whether it is a standard serial or a specialty request.
Fleet labellingInventories and film-unit vehicles often need a plausible unused-looking serial that still obeys a state’s character classes.
Fiction and propsWriters and set designers pick a combination that could exist on a given state’s dies without copying a photographed car.
Dataset testingOCR, ANPR and form-validation tests need strings that match a published pattern, including separators.
Format teachingThe combination is a worked example of how many plates a map can hold, not a window into a motor-vehicle file.

Generated example versus a real plate

A real Illinois plate is a physical die issued from a series or a vanity queue. HO 24113 on this URL is a string that fits that series’ character classes. Identical glyphs can exist in both worlds; this website has no feed that would let it tell them apart. If you need an official answer, ask the Illinois motor-vehicle agency, not plates.autos.

Questions about HO 24113

Which state does HO 24113 belong to?

HO 24113 is analysed here as a generated example of the Illinois passenger serial (AA 99999). It is not assigned to a motorist by this site. The glyphs fit the sequential passenger skeleton used in this atlas.

Is HO 24113 real?

No claim is made that HO 24113 is currently issued, expired, or reserved. The string sits inside a published character map. Whether a DMV ever stamped it is a registration fact this atlas does not observe.

What does HO 24113 mean?

HO 24113 is a serial, not a slogan. Letters HO occupy positions 1, 2; digits 24113 occupy positions 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Spoken with the NATO alphabet it reads Hotel · Oscar · two · four · one · one · three.

Which state uses HO 24113?

This page files HO 24113 under Illinois because it fits that state’s AA 99999 passenger map. The same alphanumeric string also fits Connecticut. Other states with a different skeleton will reject the same glyphs.

Which vehicle uses HO 24113?

None that this atlas knows of. There is no vehicle make, model, colour, or VIN attached to HO 24113. If you photographed a car, the door-jamb sticker and the registration — not this page — identify the vehicle.

Which state’s format does HO 24113 follow?

Illinois sequential passenger plates are taught here as AA 99999 (2 letters + 5 digits), in use in this atlas from 2001. Earlier Illinois plates used ABC 123 and Abraham Lincoln stacks.

Is HO 24113 a vanity plate?

Probably not, as modelled. Sequential passenger serials are issued in series; vanity (personalised) plates are requested strings that often break AA 99999. HO 24113 fits the sequential map, so this atlas treats it as a series example, not a purchased phrase.

How is HO 24113 read?

Left to right as printed: HO 24113. Aloud: Hotel · Oscar · two · four · one · one · three. Hyphens and spaces are separators in the published pattern, not extra serial values.

Which letters and numbers are in HO 24113?

Letters: HO (2). Digits: 24113 (5). Combined alphanumeric length: 7. Separators in the Illinois display form are taken from AA 99999.

How many combinations can the HO 24113 format produce?

The Illinois map AA 99999 with a 26-letter alphabet yields 67,600,000 distinct serials. HO 24113 sits at rank 19,624,113 in that mixed-radix order (about the 29.0298 percentile).

Could HO 24113 have been issued before?

It could, mathematically: the string is inside the 67,600,000-slot space. Issuance is a DMV operation (series rolls, skipped blocks, recalls). This page does not query a live file and cannot say whether HO 24113 was ever bolted to a bumper.

Why does HO 24113 appear on Google?

Because plates.autos publishes a stable analysis URL for the combination. Search engines that crawl https://plates.autos/illinois/license-plate-combinations/ho-24113/ are reading an educational combinatorics page, not a leaked registration. Ranking is not a proof of issuance.

Which country or region is HO 24113 from?

The working assumption on this page is the United States, Midwest region, state of Illinois. Other countries use different dies, shields and checksums. A similar glyph string abroad would be a coincidence of alphabet, not a shared registry.

Is HO 24113 a valid US format?

HO 24113 is a valid glyph string under the Illinois AA 99999 sequential passenger model used in this atlas. Validity here means “fits a documented sequential passenger skeleton,” not “cleared by a motor-vehicle agency.” Optional, military, and government plates are out of scope.

Which characters can appear on HO 24113?

On the Illinois sequential map: letters from ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ and digits 0–9. Skipped letters in this atlas: none modelled. Separators: whatever AA 99999 prints (space, hyphen, or dot). Decorative dies and stacked graphics do not add serial glyphs.

How might HO 24113 have been generated?

Two honest answers. A DMV would emit it by walking the AA 99999 series. This website can also construct it with PHP by placing letters HO and digits 24113 into those slots — which is exactly how a generated example is made. Neither method is a public records search.

Was HO 24113 used in a film or series?

This atlas does not track screen-used plates. Prop departments often invent in-format serials. If HO 24113 appeared on camera, that is outside the dataset here; treat any match as unverified.

Why might HO 24113 be blurred in a photo?

Publishers, Street View pipelines, and news desks often blur plates as a privacy habit, not because HO 24113 is special. A blur is not evidence that the combination is issued, sensitive, or unique.

What are similar plate numbers to HO 24113?

Immediate serial neighbours increment the mixed-radix rank by small deltas (for example HO 24110 and HO 24111). Same-format random draws on this page change on refresh so crawlers can discover more in-class URLs without turning HO 24113 itself into a moving target.

What appears online about HO 24113?

You may find this analysis, forum guesses, or unrelated hits (part numbers, product SKUs). None of those sources, including plates.autos, is a substitute for a state records request. HO 24113 as published here is a generated example combination.
