The last bearer securities that were earning interest, a 30-year bond issued in 1981, were called last year. However, there are still a considerable number of bearer securities that have not been turned in by holders. While these no longer earn interest, they remain worth their face value. Holders can call 304-480-7537 for information on how to redeem these bonds. </blockquote> Rico - according to Steve Meyerhardt, who's with the Treasury's press office:
