Whenever application is made for reissue of lost bonds or coupons, and proper bond has been given by the applicant and approved by the board of fund commissioners, the board of fund commissioners shall examine the matter, and if they are satisfied that said bonds or coupons have been destroyed, lost or stolen, then they shall order duplicate bonds or coupons of like number, date and amount of the original bonds or coupons to be issued, or they may, in their discretion, order a warrant for the amount of such bonds or coupons to be drawn on the appropriation made by the general assembly for state sinking fund or state interest fund, for the payment of the same.  When bonds are issued, coupons shall be attached thereto of the same character and in the same number as was on the original bonds at the time of their loss, destruction or theft.
