Redemption Value Tables (S40)

Use the links below to access Redemption Value Tables and current bond values.

How to Use the Redemption Value Tables

Redemption values for unmatured Canada Savings Bonds are shown by their series number.

Each amount in the table represents the redemption value of a single bond certificate. To determine the total redemption value of more than one certificate of the same denomination and series, multiply the redemption value shown for that denomination and series by the number of bonds. For example, for five $100 bonds, multiply the amount shown in the table for the $100 denomination by five.

Do not use the redemption value shown for a $500 denomination, as minor differences may occur.

Matured Series

  • Matured Canada Savings Bonds (Series 32-45)
    Regular-Interest “R” Bonds of these series are redeemable at their par value only. Compound-Interest “C” Bonds of these series are redeemable at par plus accrued interest. The redemption value shown in the table includes the total earned interest.
  • Old-Style Canada Savings Bonds (Series 1-31)
    The redemption values shown for Series 17 to 31 include the value of the maturity cash bonus payment. Please note that the value of any attached coupons, compound-interest certificates or applicable interim cash bonuses are not included in the redemption value shown in the table and must be added to that value.

    • Series 22, 23, 25, 26, 27 and 28 (eligible for interim cash bonus and maturity cash bonus)
      When a Canada Savings Bond of one of these series is redeemed, the owner may be eligible for an interim cash bonus payment which became due and payable on 1 November 1979. If this interim cash bonus has previously been paid, the upper left-hand corner of the related bond certificate will have been removed as evidence of payment. If the upper left-hand corner is still intact, the value of the interim cash bonus payment must be added to the redemption value shown in the table. Do not remove the upper left-hand corner from the bond when the bond is presented for redemption.

Redemptions During the Closed-Book Period

To prepare for the payment of interest, the registers for Regular-Interest “R” Bonds are closed two months in advance of the interest payment date. When such bonds are redeemed during the closed-book period, the registered owner(s) still receive(s) the full interest payment on the interest payment date.

If a Regular-Interest Bond is redeemed during the closed-book period, interest for that year will be paid on the anniversary date and unearned interest for the months not elapsed will be deducted from the par value of the bonds at the time of redemption. Therefore, the redemption values shown in the Redemption Values Tables for Regular-Interest “R” Bonds redeemed during the closed-book period are the par value less the unearned interest for one or two months, as appropriate.
