The coupon rate.
The face value of a bond can be found by looking at the bond certificate or by checking the bond's prospectus. It is the amount that the bond issuer promises to repay to the bondholder when the bond matures.
The interest rate that the bond issuer pays to the bondholder is called the "coupon rate." This rate is expressed as a percentage of the bond's face value and determines the periodic interest payments that the bondholder receives until maturity. The coupon payments are typically made semiannually or annually.
A borrower (typically a company) will issue a bond in return for a loan. The bond is the finanicail instrument whereby the issuer promises to repay the loan (the bond face value amount) by a certain date. The bond instrument will state the applicable terms and conditions including the date for repayment and the interest rate. A vanilla bond will be a simple repayment plus interest instrument.
A bond selling for less than its face value is classified as being sold at a discount. A bond can sell at a discount if interest rates increase or if the repayment ability of the bond issuer becomes questionable due to a reduction in the credit rating of the issuer.
The face value of a debenture, also known as its par value or principal amount, is the amount that the issuer agrees to pay the debenture holder at maturity. It is typically the original investment amount and is used to calculate interest payments, which are usually expressed as a percentage of the face value. For example, if a debenture has a face value of $1,000 and an interest rate of 5%, the holder would receive $50 in interest annually until maturity.
When a bond matures the issuer has to pay the investor the full face value of the bond. The bond will also have a stated interest rate. If an investor will only accept a rate of interest which is higher than the stated interest rate, the issuer will likely sell the bond for less than the present value of the face value of the bond. For example, If a $100,000 bond is issued with a $4,000 discount to meet the buyers desired return, the issuer will have to pay the investor the $96,000 ($100,000-$96,000) the issuer received plus the $4,000 discount upon maturity. Since the issuer has to pay out that $4,000, upon maturity, to secure $96,000 the $4,000 discount is recognized by the issuer as interest expense (over the life of the bond).

Yes, bonds can increase in value, primarily due to changes in interest rates. When interest rates fall, existing bonds with higher interest rates become more attractive to investors, leading to an increase in their market price. Additionally, improvements in the creditworthiness of the issuer can also boost a bond's value. However, bond prices can also decrease if interest rates rise or if the issuer's credit quality declines.

One common element of a bond is the coupon rate, which represents the annual interest rate paid by the issuer to the bondholder. This rate is typically fixed at the time of issuance. Other elements include the maturity date, which is when the bond reaches the end of its term, and the face value, which is the amount that the issuer agrees to repay the bondholder at maturity.

To determine the face value of a bond, look at the bond certificate or the bond indenture. The face value is the amount that the bond issuer promises to pay back to the bondholder when the bond matures. It is also known as the par value or principal amount of the bond.
A bond selling for less than its face value is classified as being sold at a discount. A bond can sell at a discount if interest rates increase or if the repayment ability of the bond issuer becomes questionable due to a reduction in the credit rating of the issuer.
