NH Lottery Begins Selling $30 Scratch Ticket With Record $3 Million Jackpot

MANCHESTER, NH — The New Hampshire Lottery began distributing a new $30 scratch ticket to retailers statewide on Monday, introducing what it says is the largest scratch ticket jackpot in its history.

The game, called $30 $3,000,000 Cash Spectacular, offers three top prizes of $3 million and is the Granite State’s first $30 ticket in more than a decade.

To mark the launch, the lottery unveiled a 70-foot-tall banner of the new ticket on the side of the GYK building, the former R.G. Sullivan Cigar Factory Building, at 175 Canal St. in Manchester. The ticket has a limited run, according to the New Hampshire Lottery.

“We are always looking for new and exciting ways to connect with our players while delivering opportunities to win big,” Charlie McIntyre, the executive director of the New Hampshire Lottery, said. “Seeing this new $30 scratch ticket brought to life on such a large scale in downtown Manchester is a powerful reminder of the fun and anticipation our games create. We’re thrilled to offer our players the chance to win $3 million — the largest scratch ticket jackpot prize we have ever offered — and we look forward to the excitement this new ticket will bring.”

The game uses a standard match-and-win format. According to the lottery, players win the prize shown if any of their numbers match any winning numbers. Players who reveal a 2X, 5X, 10X, 20X or 50X symbol win 2, 5, 10, 20 or 50 times the prize shown for that symbol.

The lottery said players who reveal “WINALL” win all 35 prizes. If a player reveals a roll of cash symbol, they automatically win the prize shown. The bonus portion of the ticket is played separately, according to the lottery.

Tickets may be purchased by anyone 18 or older at New Hampshire Lottery retailers across the state. The lottery said players can use its website to find the retailer nearest to them.

The rollout adds a new high-priced scratch option for New Hampshire players and gives retailers a new game to offer customers. The new ticket went into distribution Monday and is now available statewide, according to the New Hampshire Lottery.
