ABOUT THIS GAME

LOTERIA Grande (#1969): prizes, value and pace

As of October 26, 2026, 3 of the 3 $100,000 top prizes are still unclaimed; across the 13 prize levels the lottery reports, 845,961 of 1,199,322 prizes (71%) remain.

At current prize levels a $5 ticket returns about $3.44 on average (0.69 per dollar), which ranks 11 of 42 $5 games on sale in New Jersey, above the $5 median of 0.66. Among every New Jersey game with a computable value it is 57 of 142; nationally it sits in the 58th percentile. Like nearly every scratch-off, it pays back less than it costs on average.

Over the last 30 days, 110,067 prizes were claimed across the reported levels, none of them a top prize; at the current pace the remaining tickets would sell out in about 224 days (likely range 157–314).

New Jersey also sells 2 other issues of LOTERIA Grande: game #1888 and game #1932. Each issue has its own print run and prize pool, so their odds and remaining prizes differ.
