Georgia scratch-offs still have nearly $186 million in top prizes unclaimed

Georgia players have left a lot of money on the table, and are buying a lot of tickets that cannot pay what the front advertises. Counting games whose top prize is $100,000 or more, 77 Georgia scratch-offs on sale have 180 unclaimed top prizes worth about $185.9 million, current as of this writing on August 12, 2026.

The biggest sits on 500X THE MONEY, a $50 ticket with two $10 million prizes still out there, though it only rates 67 on our ValueScore™. Here is where the largest prizes are:

GamePriceTop prizeLeftValueScore
500X THE MONEY$50$10,000,000267.0
2nd Edition Billionaire Club$30$7,000,000169.0
JUMBO BUCKS EXTRAVAGANZA$50$5,000,000578.0
200X THE MONEY$25$4,000,000156.4
GRANT$30$3,000,000289.9
100X THE MONEY$20$3,000,000359.9
MILLIONAIRE JUMBO BUCKS$20$2,500,000284.5

Prize size and value are not the same thing, and this table is a decent illustration. 200X THE MONEY dangles $4 million and rates 56.4, well below average. GRANT rates 89.9, the best score on the list, and still has two $3 million prizes unclaimed. It is the same $30 game a Hinesville player hit for $3 million in July, and there are two more where that came from. The highest-rated Georgia game overall is 100Xtra at 90.7, a $20 ticket with three $2 million prizes left.

For a $50 ticket, JUMBO BUCKS EXTRAVAGANZA is the one worth a look. Five $5 million prizes remain and it rates 78, well clear of 500X THE MONEY at the same price.

36 Georgia games have nothing left at the top

Buying any of these cannot win you the prize printed on the front. The most striking is $2,500,000 CASH MULTIPLIER, a $20 ticket still on shelves with all of its $2.5 million prizes claimed. Three separate $10 games advertise $1,000,000 with none left: $1,000,000 TRIPLE MATCH, PLATINUM Premium Play and LUCKY 7 MULTIPLIER.

States are generally allowed to keep selling a game after its jackpots are gone, which is why hundreds of scratch-offs nationwide are in this position. Smaller prizes on those tickets still pay, so they are not worthless, but the number on the front of the pack is advertising something you can no longer win. Checking before you buy takes ten seconds.
