Officials have no way of contacting the winner as the ticket was not registered.
Benalla Pharmacy manager Electra Gercovich hoped to hear from them soon.
"We're really excited and can't wait to find our winner," she said.
"This is wonderful news for us and, of course, our entire small, tight-knit community.
"In November 2021, we sold two division-one winning entries in one night. We can't wait to keep the winning streak alive.
"We would like to congratulate our mystery winner and hope they check their tickets soon."
