- Lost/stolen/destroyed bonds
- Lost/stolen/destroyed certified or bank checks

The surety will consider the circumstances of the loss, period of time it has been missing, to whom it is payable, and financial capabilities of the check or certificate owner, among other criteria.
Miscellaneous Bonds include more bond types than can possibly be listed here. Some key bonds are:
