not "H" series bonds that mature at their face value, but bonds that continued to earn interest. Some of them were worth 5X-10X their face value as a result.
I was given a $50 savings bond shortly after my birth. I cashed it in after college, while I was waiting for my first paycheck. I think it was worth about $150 by that time. Couldn't think of a better way to have spent it, I lived on that money for 3 weeks at the very beginning of my adult life. I was otherwise tapped out.
