Re: [FWDLK] brand new 1957 Plymouth Belvedere

My guess is that it's a Series E Bond, the most common of the time, and 
if so, earned interest for 40 years.

 Assuming it was issued in May of 1957 (date doesn't matter, interest 
stopped in 1997) here's it's worth:
 
Serial #
NA
Issue Date
05/1957
Issue Price
$75.00
Value
$799.60
Series
E
Next Accrual
 
Interest
$724.60
Note
MA
Denom
$100
Final Maturity
05/1997
Interest Rate
 
 

Checked on Google for U S Savings Bonds and found this on the site:
