I'm looking at bond with CUSIP DSDB66702, which has a monthly coupon rate of 3.650 and a par value of $1000. If I hold this to maturity will I get $36.50 every month before taxes?

$36.50 * 12 = $438.00 If you give this a bit of thought, in the US rates are sub 5%/year, not 44%/year.

The coupon rate is an annual rate, so you get $36.50 total each year.
