• The coins are monetized bullion or other forms of money.
• The coins are manufactured from gold, silver, platinum, palladium, or other such metals.
• The coins are designated as a medium of exchange under the laws of this state, the United States, or any foreign nation.

Coins that are or were at one time used as currency or a medium of exchange in the United States or a foreign country, such as quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, are exempt from sales and use taxes.

However, numismatic items that are not made from coins or precious metal bullion, such as paper money, tokens, checks, and wampum, are not exempt from sales and use tax. The sale of art, jewelry, and commemoratives that are made from coins are subject to sales and use tax.
