Robert - Your bonds stopped paying interest at least 10 years ago. Ten years of lost interest on a million dollar investment is a lot of money. You can get a list of your savings bonds without a certified signature. See this post for information on getting your signature certified outside the U.S. Tom Adams

I'm 77 yrs.old US citizen presently residing in the Philippines. I have bonds with a face value of approximately $900,000.00 to $1.5million ,which I bought 50 yrs ago. I lost all my bonds certificates, can i still find them although i'm here in the Philippines? Can the Dept. of the Treasury,Bureau of Public Debt accepts the certified Public Debt Form 1048 certified by my local bank where i withraw my US sss pension monthly?

Joseph - For rates and values, there's also a calculator right here on this site (upper right).

Maybe I misunderstood Wendee's message - I thought she wanted to "find" a bond that she had lost.

Wendee - there's no place online where you can get information on a Savings Bond that is still paying interest. You can write and ask for information, details about that are here.

If you were born more than 30 years ago, on the other hand, your bond has stopped paying interest. In that case you may be able to track it down using Treasury Hunt.

I have a savings bond my mom told me she bought for me when I was born. She said I can probably look it up online to find out where to cash it in now but I don't have a clue where I would go for this… I found a site last year but I didn't ever go back to it and I lost it… Can you please direct me to a site that I can at least look it up and find out how much it has matured so I know whether to take it out or not and where to go to do so. Thanks
