I desperately need some help. I need to create a banner that shows the effect of scratching off numbers on a lottery ticket (like you do with a coin) I don’t need it to actually work (meaning I don’t want the coin to follow the mouse)

I have already created a movieclip with the coin that moves up and down - to give the effect of scratching, but how do I make the background disappear in an easy way? The only solution I have is to make a shape frame for frame - but that will take me ages. Is there a way to script it?

I really hope someone can help me
