    Description

    You are bidding on a complete set of four Lithuanian 3-Ruble Paper Lottery tickets, issued during 1960. These tickets have the following drawing dates:
    March 13, 1960
    June 12, 1960
    September 18, 1960
    November 27, 1960
    The front side of each ticket is printed in two colors. The color combinations are different for each ticket. The back sides are also printed in two colors, one of which is black and the other color matches the main color on the front side of that ticket.
    The ticket number and the serial number are printed in black ink on all tickets. The numbers comprising the ticket and serial numbers have an interesting design (see blowup picture), each containing miniature numerals of the same number—most probably an anti-counterfeiting technique. The size of each ticket is approximately 7cm x 12cm, or 2 3/4 x 4 3/4 inches.
    The text on each ticket is in both Lithuanian and Russian. Here is a translation of the text (via Google Translate):
