Hi, I'm new here. I just inherited $7 million in gold coins. My grandfather had them in a dusty boxes for many years. Some he even buried in the yard. They were real ugly and dirty, so I cleaned them up a bit by buffing them with car polish. For the really dirty ones I had to first use my Dremel with the sandpaper attachment. Now they look real shiny. How much more do you think a dealer would give me for them?

tgauchsin, I hope that's a joke. You didn't seriously buff them.

Question. Why did the IRS take $750,000? Would that be back taxes? Do they tax estates?

They do tax estates or the death tax and a lot of people call it.
