CDL: Insurance value of the collection

For insurance purposes we are trying to figure out how to put a dollar 
figure on our collection holdings. Does anyone have a methodology for 
valuation of our collection? At this point any help would be greatly 
appreciated. If you need more information please do not hesitate to 
contact me directly.

Thanks in advance for your help.
