Documentation before the problem
Photographs, receipts, appraisals, numbers, and descriptions help demonstrate existence, condition, and value. Update the inventory after every acquisition or sale.
Keep copies away from the collection location. Documents inaccessible after an incident have limited utility.
Understand the coverage
Policies vary regarding transportation, exposure, theft, accidental damage, and per-item limits. Inform yourself with the insurer or broker about collectible items.
Replacement values change. Regular reviews prevent coverage incompatible with the current market.
