Florida exempts gold, silver, and platinum bullion, as well as coins, from sales tax when the total sale amount exceeds $500. Transactions of $500 or less are subject to the full 6% state rate plus any applicable local discretionary surtax (typically 0.5-1.5%). The exemption applies per transaction.
