The Magnolia State is releasing a trio of Presidential instant-win tickets. These scratch-offs, which will complete the Presidential family of games, will be available for purchase on December 5, 2023. Here’s what’s coming.

Jefferson Presidential scratch-off

This $2 instant-win ticket offers a chance to win a cash prize of up to $20,000. To play simply, scratch off the two silver dollar symbols to reveal the winning numbers. Then, scratch off the remaining 10 dollar symbols to reveal your numbers. If any of your numbers match the winning numbers, you win the amount shown with that number. If you reveal a gold bar symbol, you instantly win the prize shown next to that symbol. Reveal a 2X symbol, and you win twice the amount shown next to that symbol.

Lincoln Presidential scratch-off

This is a $5 scratch-off with a top prize of $100,000. To play, simply scratch off the four upper dollar symbols. Then remove the remaining 15 dollar symbols. If any of your numbers match the winning numbers you win the prize shown by that number. If you reveal a gold bar symbol, you instantly win the prize shown next to that symbol. If you reveal a 5X symbol, you win five times the amount shown for that symbol.

Hamilton Presidential scratch-off

You’re right in thinking that Hamilton was not a U.S. president, but he was a Founding Father who became the first Secretary of the Treasury. This $10 instant-win ticket has a maximum prize of $200,000. To play, simply scratch off the six upper dollar symbols. Then, remove the remaining 20 dollar symbols. If any of your numbers match the winning numbers you win the prize shown by that number. If you reveal a gold bar symbol, you instantly win the prize shown next to that symbol. If you reveal a 5X or 10X symbol, you win five or ten times the amount shown. You also have an extra chance to win by scratching off the two bonus coins. If either reveals a coin symbol, you win the amount shown.

These three new scratch-off tickets will join the Mississippi Lottery’s existing Presidential instant win tickets, which feature:

Jackson Presidential scratch-off

This $20 scratch-off game features President Jackson and has a top prize of $1 million. To play, simply scratch off the upper 8 dollar symbols to reveal the winning numbers. Then, scratch off the remaining 25 dollar symbols to reveal your numbers. If any of your numbers match the winning numbers you win the prize shown by that number. If you reveal a gold bar symbol, you instantly win the prize shown next to that symbol. If you reveal a 10X or 20X symbol, you win a multiplier prize. Reveal a $100 or $500 symbol, and you win that prize instantly. The prize range is $40, $50, $100, $200, $400, $500, $5,00, $10,000, $50,000, and $1 million.

If you don’t win first try, don’t ditch your ticket. These instant-win games can also be entered for a chance to win cash prizes in the Mississippi Second Chance promotional drawing.
