These taxes must be collected on (1) palladium products; (2) copper products; (3) any bullion with a purity of less than 980 parts per 1,000; (4) any coins that were issued by any other U.S. state other than the State of Illinois; (5) accessory items; and (6) processed items.

The following definitions apply to products on which taxes must be collected in Illinois:

• Bullion. Gold, silver, or platinum in a bulk state with a purity of not less than 980 parts per 1,000.
• Accessory Items. Items such as holders, tubes, coin flips, and apparel.
• Processed Items. Precious metals that have been processed by third parties into items that are valued on more than their precious metal content, such as statues or colorized coins.
