保护您的货币销售免税

只有少数州没有对书籍上的硬币和金条豁免营业税，但是随着马里兰州州的行动，数字增加了

A small number of states still have sales tax exemption for coins and bullion, but that number is quickly diminishing. The good news is that the rapid action of Whitman Expos and Baltimore Convention Center lobbyists will keep the exemption in place for events at that facility.

少数州仍然对硬币和金条有销售免税，但这个数字迅速减少。好消息是，惠特曼博览会和巴尔的摩会议中心游说者的迅速行动将使该设施的活动予以豁免。

This could be a very big step in protecting against a total loss of business. It could also be the place to start to get the exemption back on the books later.

这可能是防止全部业务损失的重要一步。这也可能是稍后开始将豁免重新获得豁免的地方。

The newsy item in the April 28, 2025 issue of Coin World regarding the Maryland state legislature's action on a state sales tax exemption for coins and bullion began with this sentence: "Bad news arrived this week with news that the Maryland state legislature voted to eliminate the sales tax exemption for coins and bullion."

在2025年4月28日发行的硬币世界中，有关马里兰州立法机关对硬币销售免税和金条的行动的新闻项目始于这一判决：“本周的坏消息与马里兰州州立法机关一起投票消除了对硬币和小块的销售免税的消息。”

It is still pending the governor’s signature, but a veto doesn’t seem to be the place to bet the farm. Assuming it takes effect July 1, it could have far-reaching impact in a lot of places.

它仍在等待州长的签名，但否决权似乎并不是下注农场的地方。假设它于7月1日生效，则可能在许多地方产生深远的影响。

This is happening in Maryland, but it could happen to you. There is no guarantee that the exemption you’re currently enjoying will last forever. Elections come, officeholders change, budgetary mindsets get altered and government officials start looking for places where they imagine they can either stop losing money or start making more.

这在马里兰州发生了，但可能发生在您身上。不能保证您目前享受的豁免将永远持续下去。选举来了，办公室持有人会发生变化，预算思维方式正在改变，政府官员开始寻找他们认为他们可以停止亏损或开始赚更多赚钱的地方。

Just as lawmakers rally support among their peers for their viewpoints, so too can the numismatic community. That’s why the National Coin & Bullion Association has what it calls the “Concerned Collectors Coalition.” The membership tier is specifically created for those who do not make their primary living in numismatics. (If you do, there are other membership levels for you.) It costs absolutely nothing to be a member of the Concerned Collectors Coalition, and you even get a certificate suitable for framing. (In the interest of full disclosure, I am a member, but I haven’t bought a frame for my certificate). This membership at the grassroots level helps keep the interest of the collector on a par with the interests of the businesses. We all share the goal of moving numismatics forward and increasing the benefit of the experience.

正如议员们在同龄人之间集会的观点一样，钱币社区也是如此。这就是为什么国家硬币与金条协会拥有所谓的“相关收藏家联盟”的原因。会员层是专门为那些不在数值中居住的人而创建的。 （如果这样做，您还有其他会员资格。）成为有关收藏家联盟的成员，您甚至获得了适合框架的证书。 （为了充分披露，我是会员，但我还没有为证书购买框架）。基层的这种成员资格有助于使收藏家的兴趣与企业的利益相提并论。我们所有人都分享了推动币种前进并增加体验利益的目标。

It’s incumbent on each of us to do our respective part and not expect others to do what we can do. The NCBA has to play offense, helping get the positive messages of the exemption to places that haven’t grasped the message, and defense, trying to stop actions like repeals. Success comes through consistent effort. Every little bit helps. It may be too late for Maryland (for now), but it’s never too late to make sure it doesn’t happen to you. The NCBA can help, but we all need to do our part to assist in the effort.

我们每个人都有责任做我们各自的部分，而不希望别人做我们能做的。 NCBA必须扮演进攻，有助于获得豁免的积极信息，向尚未掌握信息的地方以及防御，试图停止诸如废除之类的行动。成功是通过一致的努力来实现的。每一点都有帮助。对于马里兰州来说，这可能为时已晚，但现在确保您不会发生的事情永远不会太晚。 NCBA可以提供帮助，但我们所有人都需要尽我们所能来协助努力。
