National Coin & Bullion Association

We work hard to fight for legislation and sales-tax policies that are in the best interest of the numismatic community, but we also want to make it easier for our members to adhere to the regulations already in place. All NCBA dealer-members receive a 15% discount on services from Knaus & Associates to help them meet current AML and CFT obligations. Staying on top of evolving compliance requirements can be difficult, but working with a firm dedicated to helping numismatists stay in compliance ensures you’ll always be on top of things. Contact our AML advisor, Gary Knaus, to get started! There are more details in our most recent member newsletter.

We want to see YOU at the ANA World’s Fair of Money later this month! We’ll be set up at table 1833 in the Club Midway Tuesday through Saturday. Stop by to learn more about what we do, ask questions about membership, or just say hello! We’re excited to talk with members and non-members alike.

This is what we love to see! In Mississippi, coins, precious metals, and currency are fully exempt from sales tax, creating a more collector- and dealer-friendly environment. This makes it easier for collectors and dealers alike to buy, sell, collect, and invest with confidence.

All new members age 35 and younger are still eligible for 50% off their first year of NCBA membership! We’re committed to supporting the future of numismatics, and this promotion is designed to help younger dealers take their first steps, connect with the community, and discover everything NCBA has to offer. Interested in joining? Send us an email — we’ll be happy to answer any questions and help you get started!

Welcome aboard to our newest members!

The “Our Sponsors” carousel showcases member ads in rotation and is a free benefit for Bronze-level members and above.

Send us an email if you’re interested in promoting your company!

We’ve received multiple reports of a scam email circulating since late 2025 that falsely claims to be from NCBA and pressures recipients to make an “overdue membership payment.” This email is not legitimate. If you receive a suspicious message, do not reply or click any links. We will never ask you to send payment information or confirmation by replying to an email. Remember, all legitimate emails from NCBA will come from an email address ending in “ncbassoc.org.”

We created our Consumer Information Kit in response to frequent questions from collectors. It explains which precious-metal products and transactions must be reported to the IRS and provides straightforward guidance to help customers understand these reporting requirements.

If you’ve ever wondered why a dealer may need to collect your information for a transaction or file an IRS form, this resource has the answer! The kit is available to everyone, with a 50% discount for NCBA members at the Copper level or above.

Minnesota has a very limited sales-tax exemption for precious metals. While non-numismatic bullion is exempt from sales tax, all coins and paper money remain subject to the state's 6.875% sales tax. We’d love to see Minnesota adopt a broader exemption in the future!
