(b) Except as provided under (a) of this section, a pull-tab manufactured, sold, or distributed in the state must
(1) be manufactured so that it is impossible to identify whether it is a winning or losing pull-tab until it has been played by a player as intended:

(3) have an individual serial number and the name of the manufacturer conspicuously printed on the face or cover of the pull-tab; and
(4) display to the player how to open the pull-tab to determine the winning symbols or numbers.
(c) Each pull-tab within a pull-tab series must
(1) be of the same length, width, and thickness, not varying by more than 3 / 64 of an inch in any dimension; and
(2) be color coded if an individual serial number is repeated.
(d) A licensed pull-tab manufacturer shall establish its own method of game protection that allows the manufacturer and the department to determine, after the pull-tab has been played, the difference between an authentic winning pull-tab and a non-winning, altered, or forged pull-tab. The manufacturer shall submit to the department a letter explaining the method of game protection used and shall inform the department of any changes in its method of game protection.
