The 290 ransom bills found at Tena Bar: photo

Not kept here. This copy isn't ours to show. See it where it's published.

Three packets of 100, 100 and 90 bills with rubber bands intact, decayed at the edges, some blackened with silver (a possible fingerprint-test residue). Serial numbers match the ransom. The find spot was never recorded by the FBI; it was relocated in 2009 from excavation photographs.
