M1NT GOLDEN TICKET QUEST – OFFICIAL RULES

Last updated: [December 2025]

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW.
By participating in any M1NT Golden Ticket Quest sweepstakes (each, a “Quest” or the “Sweepstakes”), you agree to these Official Rules and to the decisions of M1NT, Inc. (“Sponsor”), which are final and binding.
All times are Pacific Time unless otherwise specified.


1. Overview of the Golden Ticket Quest

The Golden Ticket Quest is M1NT’s ongoing sweepstakes program.
Golden Tickets may be placed inside select M1NT Hobby Cases sold through:
• m1ntaverse.com
• Authorized online retailers
• Authorized brick-and-mortar retail partners

Every qualifying Hobby Case is sealed at the factory, and if a Golden Ticket is placed in a run, winners only discover it by opening the case (“rip and flip”).

A free Alternate Method of Entry (AMOE) is always available.
Purchase does not increase chances of winning.

The Golden Ticket Quest may run continuously or in campaign-based periods.
Campaign-Specific Details define dates, prizes, and odds for each Quest.


2. All Sales Are Final

All sales of M1NT Hobby Cases are final except in rare circumstances or where allowed by our return policy.
Damaged or incorrect items will be evaluated and corrected.

Memorabilia items vary in age and condition and are sold “as is.”
