[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1411117, member: 112"]I always reported profits and losses on coins every year. Never had any problem with it. Of course I always got and kept a receipt for every coin I purchased, and one for every coin I sold. Then I just put all the info in an Excel spreadsheet, when I bought or sold a coin (meaning at the same time) and gave my accountant a copy of that spreadsheet every year. Always seemed pretty easy to me and I never once had a problem, an never once had anything questioned. But you do have to follow the rules. You get receipts and keep receipts for everything, no exceptions. You create the spreadsheet and keep it current - no exceptions. Don't follow the rules, then you got a problem. And if you can't find an accountant that knows how to deal with all of this, then you aren't looking in the right places. If you want, I'll give you an accountant's name, address and phone number that does know how to deal with it correctly.[/QUOTE]
