The mystery winner holds one of the seven division one winning entries across Australia, drawn Saturday, July 24, with each taking home $834,643.56.
The ticket is unregistered so officials from The Lott have no way of contacting the winner to break the news, leaving it up to the ticket holder to come forward.
Cobar Newsagency owner Anni Van Der Westhuizen said they were looking forward to congratulating their winner.
"This is the first division one winning entry we've sold since taking over the business in December," she said.
"We certainly hope it's a local person from our small town who has picked up this prize.
"We're just waiting for them to come in and check their ticket so we can give them that exciting news."
The Lott spokesperson Lauren Cooney said she was eager to unite the region's newest division one winner with their prize.
"It's likely this winner has been going about their week as normal with no idea they've just won a life-changing lottery prize," she said.
"We're urging all players who purchased a Saturday Lotto ticket from Cobar Newsagency to check their tickets today.
"Make sure you search for any tickets in your wallet, handbag, fridge door or car glove box, because you could be the winner we are searching for.
"If you discover you are holding the winning ticket, contact The Lott on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize."
The winning numbers in Saturday Lotto draw 4175 were 30, 12, 26, 16, 40 and 27, while the supplementary numbers were 13 and 15.
