This is an interesting point. Most lotteries/casino games are set up with a prize of stated value (trip, car, etc.) or a set dollar amount (which, while subject to inflation/deflation, is reasonably steady).
Trading cards have no stated value, even when they're brand new. It's entirely determined by the resale market, and this can (and does) vary widely compared to cash or a prize which is immediately consumed (e.g. trip, car).
