Dare County Player Hits $200,000 Top Prize on New North Carolina Diamond 10X Scratch-Off
Less than two weeks after its debut, the North Carolina Education Lottery’s Diamond 10X scratch-off ticket has already produced a lucky big winner. Todd Cummings from Kill Devil Hills scored one of the game’s $200,000 top prizes.
Kill Devil Hills Man Wins Big on $5 Diamond 10X Ticket
Launched on December 3, 2024, the Diamond 10X scratch-off offers players the chance to win prizes ranging from $10 up to $200,000. Todd Cummings took a chance on this exciting new $5 ticket, purchasing his lucky ticket from Stop Quik on South Croatan Highway in Nags Head.
To his surprise, Cummings’ ticket turned into a $200,000 jackpot winner — the very first top prize claimed from the Diamond 10X game.
After taxes, Cummings collected $143,001 when he claimed his prize earlier this week at the Lottery headquarters. Though he has not yet announced plans for his winnings, this incredible win marks a life-changing moment for the Dare County resident.
