Insurance Appraisal
Retail Replacement Value
A professional third party produces a written document which states the determined value of an instrument after thorough analysis. Insurance companies require this document as they need to know the value to determine how much coverage to offer. Certificates of authenticity do not always list the value of an instrument. Insurance appraisals are often used as a rider to homeowners’ insurance.
