§ 9399 Bond Interest Coupon Attachment

• •Bonds must have coupons for each interest payment.
• •These coupons must have a copy of the Controller's signature.
• •This rule was added in 1943.

Imagine you have a special savings bond from the government.

Each time you get interest money, there's a little ticket (coupon) attached to the bond. That ticket must have a fake copy of the Controller's signature on it to be real.
