I Have A Savings Bond From The Year 1385, How Much Is It Worth?
Looks like a 10 dollar bill signed by treas.Henry Smith and pres. Sam Houston. The bill has inscripted The Government of Texas Promises To pay the Bearer at The Treasury Department in One Year from date, the sum of Ten Dollars and Interest thereon at the rate of ten percent per Annam, by virtue of an Act of Congress dated 9th June 1837. Houston,Texas Nov1st 1838

I can't find any records of savings bonds signed by Henry Smith, but I found a little history on Sam Houston, he was the 1st President of the Republic of Texas from Oct. 22, 1836 - Dec. 10,1838.
I would take this piece of paper to a museum curator, as they would know the history of it, and if not they might be able to lead you in the right direction. It sounds like you might have quite a find here. Hope this helps, good luck to you. Remember me in your will. LOL
