I have an US Savings Bond series EE issued in April of 2008, more than ten years ago, and the denomination on the bond says $100… what does this really mean? if I were to cash it today it’d be worth $76 and I know it was purchased originally for half the denomination, $50… so what is the $100?… any layman explanation of how these work would be greatly appreciated

    The bond will cash for if you hold it to its what the bond will cash for if you hold.
