The rule, as Missouri writes it

Missouri exempts bullion and investment coins from state AND all local sales taxes. Bullion means gold, silver, platinum or palladium in bulk, valued on content rather than form, at a purity of not less than 900 parts per 1,000. Investment coins must have a fair market value greater than their face value.

What this page cannot tell you

Whether tax is actually charged depends on the dealer, not only on where you live: a retailer collects sales tax in states where they have nexus.

Local city and county rates stack on top of any state rate shown here, and several exemptions cover investment bullion but not jewellery or collectibles sold well above melt.
