This announcement comes a month after the largest 64/9 jackpot in nearly seven-and-a-half years was sold in New Brunswick’s Gloucester County on April 15. The ticket’s value was clocked in at $64 million.

After nobody called in to claim their earnings, Atlantic Lottery made another call for the winner to come forward.

The gaming organization has yet to announce the winner of the latest prize.
