Gifted Stock – Selling at a Loss


I’ll try and put it plainly, and hope you can help answer my question!

So I was gifted some stock a couple years ago. At the time, worth quite a bit, of money. Started as a penny stock. Even getting as high as life changing, unfortunately things happen, couldn’t get a broker to help me sel it, and I didn’t have the finances to go through all the legal procedures to get it to be sellable. And I’m in a better place financially to get a broker for it, but it’s considerably not worth as much.

That’s the background, would it be worth it to sell it now, at a loss for tax purposes, or even could I do that? Just stinks about what happened but life goes on.

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks in advance
H
