<p>[QUOTE="10gary22, post: 1039493, member: 23626"]I believe that silver coins, unless you have proof otherwise are considered by IRS to have a cost base of face. The profit subject to Capital Gains tax. So if you sell $1,000 face for $18,000 they are gonna hit you for the $17,000 difference. That's why it's so important to keep the records of purchases. At least that's the way it has been in the past from my experience.</p><p> </p><p>gary[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
