My 2 Cents... If You are a Collector, than this would be part of your "Hobby" Report on Your 1040A. It's no different than reporting Art, Coins & Stamps.

If You have a "Business", than You'll need to Separate Your "Hobby" from Your "Business" transactions. Over the years I have found that it's Only difficult if I make it So!

I just report it All... As it is!
