> In addition to the standard serial formats, Massachusetts also issues "reserve" plates. Reserve plates permit the plate holder to receive the same serial number when new plate styles are issued, or to transfer the serial number to family members. These plates are either all-numeric (1 through 99999) or consist of a single letter followed or preceded by a number (A 1 through Z 9999 and 1 A through 9999 Z). Reserve serials may also be of the forms A#A, A##A, #A#, and #AA#, where # represents any number, and A represents any letter. Low-number reserve plates – now called "Lottery Plates" by the RMV – are of the forms #, ##, ###, ####, A#, A##, #A, and ##A only. When a registrant cancels a low-number reserve registration, the number is placed in an annual lottery.

You get a 0-9 if you have a regular vehicle just like I said. Doesn’t matter if you buy in November or December December or January. This just means you’ll have to pay to renew sooner.

Edit: they use the last day of the previous month as your registration expiration. So, if you register in November you’ll get a plate ending in 0 for October. If you register in January or December you’ll get leftover plates from other months.
