SECTION 5. (a) How to win: A prize winner in the Scratch-Off Game Number 858, Double Crossword, is determined by removing the entire scratch-off material from the play area on the front of the ticket to reveal eighteen (18) play symbols in the "YOUR LETTERS" box and one (1) play symbol and play symbol caption in the "BONUS BOX" box.

(c) If four (4) or more words are formed, the holder is entitled only to the highest prize identified on the "PRIZE LEGEND" chart. Prizes are not cumulative.
