In the Sunshine State, winners have 180 days to redeem their prize.
With no winner coming forward, 80% of the unclaimed prize funds will be transferred directly to the Educational Enhancement Trust Fund, which supports the state's public education system, and the remaining 20% will return to the prize pool, according to lotto officials.
The winning ticket had been purchased at a Sunoco Express in Kissimmee in Central Florida.
