<p>[QUOTE="Cloudsweeper99, post: 840495, member: 3011"]My understanding is that the $100 profit in your example is taxable at the 28% rate on collectibles. This might change ten years from now. You need to keep your receipts for the purchase price to establish your cost basis, otherwise the entire $500 might be deemed taxable. Right now, I don't know of any way the government would know that you sold such a small number of coins. However, ten years from now it seems likely that all such transactions will be recorded and reported, so keep good records so you can comply with the tax law.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
