How far is Mtdna exact match ?

[mashail]

I am wondering because none of my exact matches are the same ethnicity as me

Mtdna/Ydna traces way way way back to your first ancestors, you basically don't have almost nothing incommon with them. At the times ethnics didn't even exist.

You can get close mtdna matches, it all depends on how many people tested. Luckily in my case a Polish university in Warsaw uploaded a bunch of samples to yfull so it dates back to the middle ages. The Hungarian sample is a sample from a Magyar conqueror gravesite.
