The punched-out holes should reveal a number, and if the number matches that of one of those shown in the pay-out table,
the player receives that amount of money -- in Sean's punchboard above, for example, 12, 22, 62, 92, &c', each win a dollar
for the person playing, at the cost of a nickel per punch.

Many punchboards worked almost identically to that, while other punchboards cost different amounts to play
(usually a penny or a nickel per punch), paid out in different amounts for revealing a number or symbol, often paying out
not in cash but in candy bars or cigars or what have you.

We're not familiar with Diamond Dust baseball cards, so we can't even guess if they're related to the punchboards
(not saying they're not). But we've never seen a punchboard that either paid out in or contained baseball cards.

Again, this is a little outside of our wheelhouse, but someone on board here who has more hands-on experience
with punchboards should have better information. As always, we stand ready to be corrected.
