Mark - as the above chart shows, H/HH bonds are no longer issued, so no, you can't.

Do you still issue paper bonds? I can't keep track of all the junk on computers. I don't want to buy anymore bonds if I don't get a certificate of ownership.

Hi Vern - I wrote a book about Savings Bonds, but I've never issued them. The US Treasury, however, still issues paper Savings Bonds.
