Series HH Savings Bond

In the United States, a formerly-issued savings bond, exempt from state and local taxes, with an interest rate fixed for 10 years. These bonds paid par upon maturity, which was 20 years after issue. They were non-transferable and must either have been held or redeemed. Very often, the interest rate dropped to 1.5% after 10 years, which rarely kept pace with inflation. Series HH bonds were discontinued in 2004. See also: Series H bond.
