Lottery Until Dec. 11, one particular Lotto 6-49 ticket bought almost a year ago in the GTA is worth $104,923.80.

After that — zilch.

The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp. is urging people to check their old tickets because the one-year window to claim the second-prize-winning ticket from Dec. 13, 2008 — with numbers 4, 15, 34, 36, 43 and 47 — is closing.

The prize can be claimed no later than Dec. 11 at 5 p.m.

The OLG says on its website that unclaimed Lotto 6-49 prizes are used for future bonus games or promotions. The funds are administered by the Inter-provincial Lottery Corp. and held separately from Ontario-only games.

The lucky winner-in-waiting is asked to fill out the back of the ticket, sign it and contact the OLG Prize Centre at 20 Dundas St. W., 1-800-387-0098.
