FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION

Date of transcription 12/1/71

On November 25, 1971, [REDACTED] Seattle-First National Bank, the head office being in Seattle, Washington, provided the following information:

---

[REDACTED] upon being advised of the identity of the writer, handed the writer a film canister containing a microfilm, upon which the serial numbers of $250,000 worth of notes were recorded. He advised that of the $250,000 worth of notes, the Federal Bureau of Investigation should only be concerned with the $20 bills, that is the serial numbers of the $20 bills, because the hijacker received only $20 bills. [REDACTED] stated that there are $230,000 worth of $20 bills recorded on the microfilm. [REDACTED] advised that in order for the Federal Bureau of Investigation to determine the serial numbers of the $20 bills which the hijacker actually received, we must subtract serial numbers which he provided me from the total list of serial numbers on the microfilm.

---

[REDACTED] provided a list of serial numbers of $20 totaling $30,000 worth of notes, which, although they were on the microfilm itself, were not part of the $200,000 worth of $20 bills which the hijacker received. [REDACTED] stated that the bank packs $20 bills in packages of 100. Each packet therefore contains $2,000 worth of $20 bills. [REDACTED] provided the first and last serial number in each of these $20 bill packets and advised that we should subtract both of these numbers, as well as the 98 serials numbers between each of these groups of numbers in order to determine the actual serial numbers of the bills which the hijacker received. These groups of numbers are as follows:
