Old $100 gold bond
I found 2 gold bonds for the lakeside hospital chicago, issued October 1923 and are payable principal and interest at city state Bank chicago. I am clueless where to start to see if they are worth anything. I heard you earlier today taking about stock certificates. Thank you!

Here’s what I found about the history of Lakeside hospital and its closure:

Not even sure if this is the same hospital. Lots of companies, even hospitals, defaulted in the 1930s.
Likely the only value is in framing them for a decoration!
But here’s a link you can use to try to see if they have any monetary value: https://scripophily.net/
