Rare. “This Ticket entitles the Bearer to such Prize as may be drawn against its Number, if demanded within nine Months after the Drawing is finished; subject to a Deduction of Fifteen percent.” A 1759 Biles Island lottery ticket is a known remainder; this 1774 ticket is not and it is likely one of a small handful known.
