VA § 58.1-609.1 (19) exempts gold, silver, or platinum bullion, as well as legal tender coins from sales tax. This exemption was set to expire June 30, 2025 and VA HB 1600 extended the expiration to June 30, 2026. At this time, Virginia has not extended the exemption further. Therefore, Virginia will begin taxing these products July 1, 2026 absent further legislative action.
