This post left anonymously

My grandmother passed away years ago and in her “living trust” she left me some valuable jewelry.

If I sell it to an “Estate Jewelry Co.” would I have to pay income tax on it. I need to know because I am on Social Security Disability.
Any help appreciated.

The tax question depends on your country’s tax rules — which we don’t know.

In the USA, the “death tax” has been greatly lessened. Seems you can inherit up to $600,000 without it being taxed–but ask an estate attorney to be sure!
