Ohio State Sales Tax Requirements for Bullion & Collectibles Industry

The State of Ohio requires the Coinhuskers to collect sales taxes on certain products sold by Coinhuskers and delivered to an Ohio address. These taxes must be collected on (1) bullion comprised of gold, silver, platinum, or palladium that does not meet certain purity requirements; (2) copper products including coins or bullion; (3) accessory items; and (4) processed items. All other products sold by Coinhuskers are exempt from these taxes.

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

• Bullion. Precious metal that is valued solely upon its precious metal content, whether in bar, round, or ingot form (Note: In Ohio, coins comprised primarily of gold, silver, platinum, or palladium are excluded from the definition of bullion).
• Purity Requirements. Gold bullion with a minimum purity of 0.995%; silver bullion with a minimum purity of 0.999%; platinum bullion with a minimum purity of 0.9995%; and palladium bullion with a minimum purity of 0.9995%.
• 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.

Sales taxes in Ohio are calculated at checkout on the Coinhuskers website based on (1) the taxability of products sold by Coinhuskers in Ohio set forth above, and (2) the specific tax rates established by the taxing jurisdiction of the delivery address in Ohio.
