Abstract: A lottery ticket scraper incorporates a coin as the scraping surface. The scraper includes a body having a modified teardrop shape, with a major and minor end, the minor end having a reduced thickness to incorporate a key-ring hole, allowing keys to be added without binding or expanding to an undesired size. The body further includes a depression to allow the user to comfortably grasp the scratcher and use it to remove the protective film of the lottery ticket without strain or discomfort to the user's hand. The scraper includes a recess in the major end of the body into which a coin may be glued or press-fit. The recess is so formed as to allow the coin to be reliably captured therein, while still providing sufficient overhang to allow the edge of the coin to be applied to the lottery ticket surface.
