Abstract
Described herein is a break-open lottery ticket and a method of producing same. The lottery ticket includes variable imaged lottery indicia printed directly onto the ticket, meaning that bar codes and other similar features can be added for increased security and facilitated redemption. The indicia are covered by a break open window allowing the indicia to be exposed for playing the game. The indicia are printed onto a white lily pad in two or more colors allowing a high quality graphic image to be provided to attract the player.
