Description
D.B. Cooper Ransom Money
Fr. 2067-L $20 1969 Federal Reserve Note. D.B. Cooper 1971 Ransom Money. Serial Number L57110577A.Certified and encapsulated by PCGS Currency with a custom insert picturing the 1971 artist's sketch of the sunglasses-wearing skyjacker. Found by eight-year-old Brian Ingram along the banks of the Columbia River in Washington on February 10, 1980, this is one of the only known group of currency notes that can be linked to the historic and infamous event.
All the notes from this group were damaged by their exposure to the elements. This present example is approximately 4.5" x 1.5" in size, irregular in shape, and light in color. It features a near-complete Jackson portrait, both incomplete serial numbers, a complete San Francisco "L" Reserve Bank designation, and the handwritten initials of the FBI agent who originally inventoried the bills soon after their discovery. The back is still green with just the slightest discoloration. The note was laminated with a dated insert of the day it was found prior to its encapsulation by PCGS.
