A fragment of a ransom bill from the 1971 D.B. Cooper hijacking sold for $134,200 at an auction in Dallas. The bill was part of the $200,000 paid to the hijacker, who parachuted from a Boeing 727 with the money. In 1980, a boy discovered the note at Tena Bar, and the FBI later verified its authenticity. The recovered fragment represents a tangible piece of the decades-old mystery surrounding Cooper’s disappearance. This sale highlights the continued public fascination with the unsolved case. The auction price reflects the historical significance and rarity of the item. The fate of the majority of the ransom money remains unknown.
