What’s in it

This bill excludes from the computation of net income for purposes of the individual income tax the capital gain from the sale of bullion, coins, or currency and includes capital loss from such a sale. For purposes of the bill, “bullion” means bars, ingots, or commemorative medallions of gold, silver, platinum, palladium, or a combination of these where the value of the metal depends on its content and not the form. “Coins” or “currency” means a coin or currency made of gold, silver, or other metal or paper which is or has been used as legal tender. The bill applies to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2024.
