The "possible duplicate" says "I don't know what happens when it hits 11 digits" so does not answer this question.

Fair enough - the question states the behavior of what happens when the number ticks over the digits specified in the display format, is what I was getting at. The items below don't get at going higher than 10bn records either.

I just created a custom object using an Auto Number Display Format of T-0 and names like T-10 and T-11 were created.
So looks like no restarting, with the formatting expanding as you might expect for the numbers that use more characters than specified by the format.
