is it worth more now or still just $100?

It will continue to earn interest even after it matures. I believe they will earn interest for 30 years. The link below is a calculator in which you can put in the face amount and serial number, and it will tell you the bond's worth today.

Once a bond matures, it stops earning interest, no matter how long you keep it. The bond will always be worth $100, but $100 was worth a lot more seven years ago than it's worth today. So, cash it in as soon as possible.

Depends on the type of bond. A US savings bond continues to earn interest for a time after it matures.

There are several factors that go into this. Best to check it at a savings bond calculator - http://www.treasurydirect.gov/BC/SBCPrice
