Unfortunately, they were purchased over 15 years ago. I don't have any receipts and cannot remember what I paid for them.

As to the 28%, I thought the sales of collectibles were reported separately and taxes on those sales were capped. Long story short - I was under the impression this was not treated as ordinary income. Again, I don't do this for a living and certainly don't operate a business. So, no Schedule C.

Is the 28% cap correct, or am I missing something?
