Nevada applies sales tax to bullion sold for purposes other than use as a medium of exchange. Coins are deemed sold for another purpose when their sales price exceeds face value by 50%, and obsolete or non-current coins are generally treated as collectibles. This is not a broad investment-bullion exemption.
Tax note: Nevada currently taxes some precious-metals purchases. Out-of-state purchases may create use-tax obligations, so verify the current rules before buying.
