Selling gold in Phoenix: what Arizona law requires

Arizona's sales tax does not apply to precious metal bullion or to coins used as money, though coins sold to be made into jewelry or art are taxed. Source: A.R.S. 42-5061.
An Arizona dealer buying secondhand gold or jewelry must check a driver license or other photo ID, send a list of purchases to local police, and hold the items for 10 calendar days after that list is delivered. Source: A.R.S. 44-1602.

This is a summary of the state rule, not legal advice. Cities and counties can add their own rules, so ask the buyer what they need from you before you go.
