Collectible Insurance
Collections often grow in value, worth much more than the collector imagines. Many collectors don’t realize that relying on homeowners insurance to cover loss or damage could leave them sadly disappointed. This is your opportunity to help educate and protect. Insure your clients’ treasured collections today!
Accidents happen. Homeowners insurance will not cover accidental breakage or damage or loss due to natural disasters such as flood and earthquake.
Policy Features
As an American Collectors’ customer, you can be sure your collector vehicle has the best coverage available. Your investment will be well-protected by a policy that has been designed especially for collectors. Our policies are annual and our minimum premium is $100. Features include:
Agreed Value Coverage
Qualifying collections are insured for their full collector value less any deductible, and never depreciate. Coverage also applies to accessories such as model train layouts, and product packaging.
Inflation Guard
For scheduled items automatically increases items valued over $2,000 by 2% quarterly, up to 8% annually, at no additional cost.
Automatic Coverage for New Additions
The collectibles policy provides automatic coverage for newly acquired pieces for 30 days up to a maximum value of $2,000
Submission Requirements
It takes just a few minutes to quote and submit your next risk online! Once approved, you will receive a confirmation email listing premium payment options – please note: American Collectors Insurance does require the total annual premium in order to bind coverage, and photo(s) and forms must be received within 20-days. Upon receipt of the premium payment, temporary ID cards will be made available via email. We will review & respond within 24 hours to risks that are not immediately accepted. It’s that easy!
