Do Engagement Rings Need to Be Appraised for Insurance? 

You just got engaged. The ring is beautiful, it means everything and replacing it if something went wrong is probably the last thing on your mind right now. But here is the thing: engagement rings are among the most valuable pieces of jewelry most people will ever own and without a current appraisal on file, your insurance coverage may not fully protect you when it matters most. Getting that documentation in place early is one of the simplest and most important steps you can take to protect something irreplaceable.
