Coin, Stamps, Currency, Antiques & Collectible Donations

PERSPECTIVE

Coins, stamps, and currency generally have a unique value and ready liquidation markets to sell.

Antiques, estate jewelry and other collectibles often represent unique problems to sell, inventory, or to distribute.

Sometimes these collections represent hidden estate valuation problems. (In the future you will be able to find a link here to the article, "Donations of these collections is a valid option".)

You can learn more about the tax advantages of a coin, stamp or currency donation by talking with your tax professional and reading the IRS publication 'IRS PUB 526'. In this publication you will find the rules concerning donating personal property and determining the donation value.

Collectibles may include: sports memorabilia, doll collections, toy collections, collector automobiles etc.
