Why a $75 EE Bond From 2007 to 2011 Is Worth Less Than $75
A $75 EE bond from May 2007 to December 2011 is worth less than $75 because it reaches face only at original maturity, 20 years after issue.
These 56 issue months are worth $41.07 to $72.33 in November 2026, above the $37.50 cost. Treasury guarantees face at original maturity (31 CFR 351.35(f)(1)), and May 2007 reaches $75.00 in May 2027.

Which $75 EE Bonds Have Stopped Earning Interest
Every $75 EE bond issued January 1980 through November 1996 has stopped earning interest and keeps its final value. Interest stops at final maturity, the date 30 years after issue (31 CFR 351.5). Three groups stand out in November 2026:
- January 1980 to November 1996: stopped, $92.67 to $251.10.
- December 1996: earns until December 1, 2026.
- January to April 1997: earns until January to April 2027.
Issues from May 1997 on keep earning until the 30-year dates in Table 1, which run from May 2027 to December 2041. Final maturity differs by series and issue period, as the page on when savings bonds mature and stop earning interest shows.
Why $75 EE Bonds Issued a Month Apart Have Different Values
Two $75 EE bonds issued a month apart can differ by more than $30 because each issue period has its own rules. In November 2026, April 1995 is worth $123.09 and May 1995 $92.67; February 1983 is $210.24 and March 1983 $172.98.
Three further steps follow. October 1986 is worth $172.98 and November 1986 $155.52, and February 1993 is $155.52 against $123.09 for March 1993. April 2007 ($75.42) steps down to May 2007 ($72.33) because the fixed rate fell from 3.60% to 3.40%.
$75 Patriot Bonds (2001 to 2011)
A $75 Patriot Bond is a paper Series EE bond with a "Patriot Bond" inscription, issued December 2001 to December 2011. It has the terms of any EE bond of its month, so the $75 Patriot Bond value is $41.07 to $90.75 across 121 issue months in November 2026.
How Much Is a $75 Series E Savings Bond Worth?
A $75 Series E savings bond is worth $320.01 to $702.33 in November 2026, and that value no longer changes. It cost $56.25, or 75% of face (31 CFR 316.2(b)). Treasury's calculator accepts $75 E issue dates from May 1964 to June 1980; all stopped earning by June 2010.

Is There a $75 War Bond?
There is no $75 war bond in Treasury's calculator, which accepts $75 Series E issue dates only from May 1964. The 1941 to 1945 Series E bonds, covered in what war bonds are worth now, ended decades earlier. May 1964, the first $75 E month, is worth $683.31.

Paper I bonds were sold over the counter and through payroll. Electronic EE and I bonds sell at face for any amount from $25 to the cent, so they have no fixed denominations. All series: types of US savings bonds.
How to Find the Exact Value of Your $75 Savings Bond
Treasury values a $75 bond by series, face value and issue month, and the serial number is not needed. Read those three on the bond, then follow the five steps below.
- Read the series: E, EE or I.
- Read the issue month and year.
- Find the year in Table 1 or Table 3.
- Enter series, $75 and issue month in our calculator (E and EE), or in Treasury's Savings Bond Calculator (I bonds).
- Check the value's month: November 2026.
Treasury's value files price a $25 unit of face, so a $75 value is three times the $25-unit value. December 2011 is $13.69 times 3, or $41.07 (31 CFR 351.16). Where each series prints the issue date differs, and how to read a paper savings bond shows each layout.
What Happens to a $75 Bond's Value in the Coming Months
A $75 EE bond that still earns interest rises or holds on the 1st of each month; stopped EE bonds and E bonds keep their value. Of the 181 issue months still earning, 19 hold at least once by May 2027.

Cashing a $75 Savings Bond and the Tax on Its Interest
You cash a $75 bond at a bank that redeems savings bonds or by mail with FS Form 1522, and its interest is taxed by the federal government, not by states. See how to cash savings bonds. Treasury charges no fee, and the forms are free.
FS Form 1522 (revised April 2026; the form, PDF, TreasuryDirect) needs a notary or certifying officer to certify your signature only when a request totals more than $1,000 in current value. For $1,000 or less, you sign and enclose a copy of your ID.
At a bank, an identification document alone covers payments of $1,000 or less (FS Publication 0022, revised October 2022), a limit one $75 bond never reaches. By mail, send the form to Treasury Retail Securities Services, Treasury's office for paper bonds:
Treasury Retail Securities Services
P.O. Box 9150
Minneapolis, MN 55480-9150
Interest is the value minus the price, $37.50 for a $75 EE bond. State and local income tax does not apply (31 U.S.C. 3124(a)).
Federal tax falls in the year you cash the bond, dispose of it or it reaches final maturity, whichever is first (26 CFR 1.454-1(a)(1); IRS Publication 550, 2025). Yearly reporting is an option (26 U.S.C. 454(a)).
For a bond that reached final maturity in an earlier year, that earlier year is the one the rule names. Form 1099-INT covers interest of $10 or more. See are savings bonds taxable for the rule; a tax professional advises on individual returns.
Where to Cash a $75 Bond
Banks may pay $75 E, EE and paper I bonds and Savings Notes, and every $75 bond can go to Treasury by mail (31 CFR 321.7(a)).
Banks need not cash them; compare banks that cash savings bonds. Mail Individual Retirement Bonds with FS Form 1522. No bond expires (Executive Order 13968, 85 FR 83745); see when to cash savings bonds.
