Abstract
In this issue, Potts and Reichenstein describe features of U.S. savings bonds and discuss their evaluation.

Further, as Table 1, “Demographic Characteristics of Individual Savings Bond Holders,” indicates, the holding of savings bonds is not exclusive to any particular age group or income level (Federal Reserve Bulletin, 1994).
