How Much is that Savings Bond Worth?

Got a bunch of old savings bonds laying around in a file cabinet or safe deposit and have no idea what they are worth or whether or not they are still earning interest?

The US Treasury Department has a website that will tell you. Just enter the type of bond, issue date, and denomination and a simple online calculator will tell you exactly how much it is worth.
