SYNOPSIS

$q = Finance::Quote->new;
# Don't know anything about failover yet...

DESCRIPTION

Access redemption values for US Federal Bonds from the treasury.

Bonds should be identified in the following manner (as per www.piblicdebt.treas.gov/sav/savfrmat.htm):

SERIES(1) : I/E/N/S

ISSUEDATE(6) : YYYYMM

SEPERATOR(1) : ``.''

REDEMPTIONDATE(6) : YYYYMM

e.g. E200101.200501

Would have liked to get data from this source (http://wwws.publicdebt.treas.gov/BC/SBCPrice), but I couldn't work out how to get the POST to pass the IssueDate, for some reason the <input> tags are messed on that page???
