The South Ayrshire ticket would claim the highest amount - the next largest is 拢1m.
A spokesperson for Camelot confirmed a claim was made in April for the jackpot, however the money has still not been awarded.
They added: "As with all major prizes, the claim goes through a rigorous validation process to ensure the prize can be paid under the National Lottery Game Rules.
"With all National Lottery draws, players have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their prize. If a valid claim is not received within this period, the prize money is passed to good causes."
Scotland's biggest Euromillions winners were Colin and Chris Weir, from Largs in North Ayrshire, who won 拢161m in 2011.
