In Oregon, the sales tax on coins and currency is 0% because Oregon has no general state sales tax. This applies to purchases of coins, paper currency, and precious metals sold in Oregon.
For coin dealers and shows:
- U.S. coins: No sales tax
- World coins: No sales tax
- Paper currency: No sales tax
- Gold, silver, platinum bullion: No sales tax
- Numismatic/collectible coins: No sales tax
Oregon is one of the few states where coin collectors can buy without a sales-tax premium, which is one reason many collectors from neighboring states attend Oregon coin shows.
