Insure or forget?

IF YOUR COLLECTION IS INSURED I WOULD INCLUDE THESE WITH THE REST OF THE COLLECTION FOR AT LEAST WHAT YOU HAVE IN THEM. OR GET THEM APPRAISED AND INSURE THEM FOR THAT VALUE UNLESS ITS LESS THAN YOU PAYED

GOOD LUCK THEY LOOK NICE TO ME BUT I AM JUST A OLD COLLECTOR AND FAR FROM AN EXPERT.

I agree with Barry 200% (if that's possible). Speaking as one who had some of his collection stolen 2 years ago (

) I'd insure everything. Fortunately, I did........

Thanks Vandoo. I like these. I just don't trust my judgement.

I did have them appraised, but I don't trust the appraisal either. Without getting into specifics (I am on thin ice here with regards to the forum rules) they were both valued at a price I thought much too high. I think my trust is better placed here with other collectors such as yourself. Thanks again for the input. Much appreciated.
