Savings Bonds-US Savings Bonds

hendrixfanhawaii asked:


I have a lot of U.S. savings bonds that I’ve received as gifts over the years. How do I go about cashing them? Do I just take it to a bank? If I don’t have an account with a certain bank, is there any type of wait period?

I got a $50 savings bond from some folks after I graduated high school. I looked up what it is worth today which isn’t a whole lot. About $27 and change…

I understand that one day it will mature and be worth $50…but does it continue to mature after that? Like if I left it alone until I was an old man would it be worth $100? It seems like I’ve heard of old savings bonds being worth a ton of money…so what am I missing here?

I have a couple $50 series EE savings bonds in my name that I would like to redeem. I have my hospital birth record, and my Certificate of live birth as well as a picture ID from my school. The savings bonds are first in my name and then “OR” my dad’s name. I also have my social security number and what not.

Is it even possible to cash in a Series I Savings Bond before it is 12 months old?
If so will it even be at face value?
Thanks.

Lets say I want to put 100 dollars in a 7 month savings bond @ 4.28 the current rate.

With monthly accumulating intrest you gain 34.09.

If you take 100*.0428 you gain only 29.96.

On a small scale its only 4.13 difference on a large scale it could be much more!!!

While its maturing will that 100 dollars gain interest every month?

I lived in the states for a couple of years and in 1987 someone gave me a United States savings bond… do you know if it is still valid? Is it still worth the same amount or do they increase or decrease in value? And does anyone know how I can cash it? I am in New Zealand, can they only be cashed in the states?

Ok, so I am a student who is trying to pay of some college bills, and I have in my possession about $2,500 in savings bonds. The only problem is that some clown printed my name as Alexandria, when in fact my actual name is Alexander. Does anybody have any clue or advice as to how I can possibly cash them?
