Zakah ‘urood al-tijaarah (Zakah on trade goods)
Is There Zakah Due on Factory Products?
Zakah is due on the products that are ready for market, and also on the raw materials because they were bought with the intention of processing them and trading in them. Zakah must be paid on gold, silver and cash, and also on trade goods, livestock and anything extracted from the ground. Zakah must also be paid on the balances in the bank. Zakah must also be paid on debts that are owed to you by others.3,183How is the hijri year worked out for trade goods if they were bought with cash?

If the program is not for sale; rather the one who wants it may use it in return for a payment, whilst ownership remains in the hands of the producer, then that is not subject to zakat on trade goods.4,896Selling old coins for more than their face value
