Is Gold Taxable? The Truth About Capital Gains Taxes

  • Is gold taxable? The short answer is Yes. Both gold and silver (and all precious metals) are considered collectible assets and are taxed on short- and long-term capital gains. This video covers capital gains implications on precious metals in the United States. In normal circumstances, you are required to report sales on your own. There are cases where a 1099-B form is submitted to the IRS on your behalf. I'll run through those cases.
    ✅This video focuses on federal capital gains tax, not state or municipal sales tax.
    😉I also want to be clear that I don't have any gold. Mine was all lost in an unfortunate boating accident.

    What about the $10,000 thing? Federal law states that businesses need to report cash payments of more than $10,000 to the IRS using a Form 8300. This has nothing to do specifically with precious metals.

    Given that the government is essentially claiming an interest on your asset, you should charge them a storage fee for the asset that they're expecting to realise a profit from once you sell it and they tax you. Ideally the storage fee would be the same amount they were hoping to rob from you, i mean tax you. Of course, then they'll turn around and tax you on that windfall unless you can make holding government items a tax exempt activity.

      Unfortunately, gold is considered a collectable, so even a gold coin "given" to you as a gift, has to be reported as a sale if you sell it. Your basis is whatever he paid for it, or what the person paid for it if he was "given" the coin. So in this case, you still pay tax on the difference between what you paid for the coin and what you sold it for. Here's another kicker. If the SHF and you use your gold coin to barter for something else, if what you receive is worth more than what you paid for the coin, you have to report the difference as barter income on your tax return. Unless there is no more government.

    I think you missed the point altogether. The real question is why is gold worth more than its face value. The Constitution says our currency should be based in coin by gold and silver only. So if you think about it a gold coin should be worth its face value. If it appreciates that only means the dollar has depreciated if the dollar has depreciated how did that happen. Inflation is theft. So if anybody is guilty of a crime it is those that are controlling our money system

    keep in mind, it's not what the spot was on the purchase, it is the total. So, if spot was $28 with a $8 premium, your gains will be based on $36 when selling. Also, if you made purchases at several different times, you can choose which receipt to use. Guys, you should be thinking about private sales taking cash anyway. Stop giving up that premium to the dealers.

    I'm a bit confused.... Buy Gold and Silver with "Cash" sell Gold and Silver and convert back into "Cash". But if you sell a large amount of Gold and Silver at "one time" And you sold to a local dealer ...by law that dealer would be required to fill out a 1099-B on your behalf and send it to the IRS and that alerts the IRS bringing attention to the transaction?
    And when tax season comes and you go to do your taxes and file and you don't claim whatever was reported previously on that 1099-B on your end you could be potentially breaking the tax law?
    On the flip side if you sold some Gold and Silver to your local dealer but it was under the amount that would trigger the "1099B" then nothing would be reported at all to the IRS until you decide to report yourself at the end of the tax year?
