<p>[QUOTE="Peter T Davis, post: 1996176, member: 1"]If you bought, say 100 oz of gold back when it was $250 per ounce, and sold it recently for $1600 an ounce (just making those numbers up), you would have a tax liability for the profit. Your cost would have been $25,000 and your sale price was $160,000, so $160,000 - $25,000 = $135,000 and it would most likely be a long-term capital gain because gold hasn't been $250 for many years. But, yea talk to your CPA about it before you file.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
