Why Appraise Your Sports Memorabilia Collection?

Whether you’ve spent decades building a world-class sports memorabilia collection or inherited a few prized pieces, a formal USPAP-compliant appraisal ensures your assets are protected, valued correctly, and preserved for future generations. An official appraisal serves a range of critical purposes:

Estate Planning: Leave a clear, accurate valuation of your collection for your family and beneficiaries.
Insurance Coverage: Make sure your collection is properly insured against fire, flood, theft, or accidental damage.
Charitable Donations (IRS Non-Cash Tax Deduction): Required by the IRS for donations exceeding $5,000.
Equitable Division (Divorce, Partnership Dissolution): Third-party valuations eliminate disputes.
Market Value Assessment: Know where you stand in today’s market if you’re considering a sale or partial liquidation.
