A Michigan woman was so dumbfounded when she won nearly $460,000 in the state lottery, that it took her three days to tell her husband, according to the Michigan Lottery

The 72-year-old player, who wants to remain anonymous, won the $459,411 jackpot for Fantasy 5 by matching the winning numbers on Dec. 1. She had bought the ticket online from the Michigan Lottery website.

"I logged in to my account to purchase a Mega Millions ticket and couldn't believe it when I saw my account balance was $459,441," she told the Michigan Lottery. "I waited three days to tell my husband because I was trying to process the news myself. I couldn't sleep for a week because I've been so anxious to come claim my prize!"

The woman told the lottery officials she plans to share the winnings with family and save the remainder.

“Winning is such a relief and provides a nice financial cushion for me and my family,” the player told the Michigan Lottery.

The five numbers she picked that won her the big prize were 02-16-24-27-34. The woman told the Michigan Lottery that she started playing online lottery games a few years ago.
