Are There Taxes on Buying Gold and Silver Bullion in Pennsylvania?
There is a sales tax exemption for buying bullion and numismatic coins in Pennsylvania. Bullion is considered to be precious metals that derive their value from the content, not the form. Exempt coins are those which are legal tender in the US or a foreign country. Please note that many numismatic items, such as tokens and medallions, are not exempt from sales tax in the Pennsylvania, and are subject to the current state sales tax of 6%. Local and country taxes can bring this total even higher.

United States Mint – Philadelphia Branch
The Philadelphia branch of the US Mint was founded in 1792 and, amazingly, is still in operation today, manufacturing circulation coinage, commemorative coinage, and silver and gold bullion coins. Many of the everyday coins found in circulation were minted at this facility, sometimes decades ago. Traditionally, circulation coins made at the Philadelphia branch bore no mint mark, befitting the branch’s status as the first United States Mint location. Lately, however, the mint mark of ‘P’ has been added to circulation coinage produced here.

The Franklin Mint – Wawa, Pennsylvania
The Franklin Mint, sadly, no longer produces collectibles and bullion products. Following its acquisition by Roll International in the early 1990s, operations were gradually wound down. Recently, the Franklin Mint brand was purchased by a New York company, though production at the Wawa facility has not resumed. In its heyday, the Franklin Mint manufactured a huge range of collectibles, including diecast vehicles, commemorative plates, dolls, tokens, medallions, and figurines.
From the founding of the Franklin Mint in the 1960s, they produced circulation coins for foreign countries (under contract), and gold and silver bullion rounds and medallions. For many years, Franklin Mint gold and silver bullion products were advertised heavily in magazines and television, arguably making the Franklin Mint the first bullion brand to appear in the public eye.
