The bill would amend Section 151.336 to remove the limitation of the current exemption of gold, silver, or numismatic coins or of platinum, gold, or silver bullion to sales of $1,000 or more.  The effect would be to exempt all sales of the precious metal items, regardless of sales price.  The bill would take effect immediately if it receives the requisite two-thirds votes in each house, otherwise it would take effect September 1, 2011.    Methodology U.S. Census Bureau product line data for coins, medals, and other numismatic items were applied to the reported gross sales of Texas used merchandise stores, jewelry stores, art dealers, and other miscellaneous retailers to estimate currently taxable sales of the items proposed for exemption, and the state sales tax rate applied. This estimate was then extrapolated through the forecast period, and effects on units of local government estimated proportionally.  There would be a negligible fiscal impact on counties and special districts.  Local Government Impact There would be a proportional loss of sales and use tax revenue to local taxing jurisdictions.
