Well, you do get a ticket every day for free, so it's not suprising that the prizes are usually small.

A while back, I was digging into the Windows game's files and found data which seemed to give the various probabilities. This is inferred, and may not be current; it does not account for the scaling up of prizes at higher player levels. (And the diamond prizes definitely don't scale.)

100 coins: 37.2% 1,000 coins: 4.6% 10,000 coins: 0.11% 100,000 coins: 0.0093%

100 food: 37.2% 1,000 food: 4.6% 10,000 food: 0.11% 100,000 food: 0.0093%

2 diamonds: 14.9% 10 diamonds: 0.93% 100 diamonds: 0.11% 1,000 diamonds: 0.0093%

This is inferred from the contents of the "scratch_data.dat" file in the game's saved data. Note that the odds against getting your money's worth by buying lottery tickets are poor here, as they are in real life. Buy tickets only if you get that value in fun by gambling.
