Match 6 Ticket Worth $2.65 Million Sold in Lancaster County

Middletown, PA – A jackpot-winning Match 6 Lotto ticket worth $2.65 million that was sold by a Lancaster County retailer for the Monday, September 21, drawing was the game’s highest jackpot win thus far during 2015.

The ticket correctly matched all six winning numbers, 10-14-15-16-23-25, to win a jackpot of $2,650,000, less 25 percent federal withholding.

Stover’s News, 24 N. 3rd Street, Columbia, Lancaster County, earns a $10,000 bonus for selling this winning ticket.

The identity of the jackpot winner cannot be confirmed until the prize is claimed and the ticket is validated. Match 6 winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes.

The Lottery encourages the holder of the winning ticket to sign the back of the ticket, call the Lottery at 717-702-8146 and file a claim at Lottery headquarters in Middletown, Dauphin County, or at any of Lottery’s seven area offices.

Claims may be filed at Lottery headquarters Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at area offices.

More than 110,000 other Match 6 Lotto tickets also won prizes in the drawing. Players are reminded to check every ticket, every time. Lower-tier prizes may be claimed at Lottery retailers.

In the 2013-14 fiscal year, in addition to awarding more than $65.9 million in prizes to Lancaster County winners, the Pennsylvania Lottery contributed more than $35.9 million to programs serving the county’s older residents.

The jackpot had been growing since one ticket matched all six winning numbers in the July 6 drawing.
