Lottery Ticket

The lottery ticket is a miscellaneous item

Characteristics
The lottery tickets were originally issued by Big Ranch Nevada State Lotto. They appear as small pieces of paper bearing the text "Nevada State Lotto," with "Big Ranch" written below.

Lottery tickets were given to Nipton inhabitants during Caesar's Legion's massacre of the town, used to determine who would die and in what fashion. Tickets can be found scattered throughout Nipton, usually near the bodies of the town's murdered inhabitants. They have no weight and can be sold to vendors.

Lottery tickets come in two varieties, including a version worth 1 cap, and a rarer version worth 10 caps. There are 51 copies of the "common" ticket and 16 copies of the "valuable" version, including a "valuable" ticket carried by Nipton survivor Oliver Swanick.
