1. 票面价值：每年,政府会根据债券的 票面价值(face value)支付固定比率的利息. 10年后,投资者将收回债券的票面价值. 常规债券的风险是通货膨胀率突然增大. 设想一个投资者在2004年购买了1000美元的美国 政府公债,该债券为期10年,票面利率为5%.

2. 票面值：零息债券方面,它的特色是债券投资者会以债券投资票面值(face value)的折扣价买入债券,一直持有债券到期日. 当到期日渐近,债券的价格上升接近至票面面值,直至到期日,零息债券便会被收回,而投资者可取回本金,由此可见,

3. 表面价值：我们常在艺术作品上,看到作者题上'协正、匡正、删正、削正、格正、斧正、指正、教正、斤正、裁正、郢正、诲正、请正',一般都认作是敬辞或者谦辞,没有人会认真看待. 若有阿甘之流,取其表面价值(face value)去不吝指正的话,通常会自讨没趣.
