<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Victor, post: 1810598, member: 5454&quot;]A guy brought in a Tyre Sheckel which Rick purchased. Later the pawn shop security found on the internet that the coin was stolen.&nbsp; They thought they had to return the coin to the rightful owner.</p><p>Then the security guy got an update that the rightful owner was paid off by his insurance on the coin.</p><p>So Rick and staff said the coin now belonged to the store and they didn&#039;t have to return it.</p><p>On the TV episode that was the end of it.&nbsp; But my question is don&#039;t they owe the insurance company the coin or anything?</p><p>When shipwrecks are salvaged the salvors need to pay something to the insurance firms if they formerly paid claims when the ship was lost.&nbsp; Example: When Tommy Thompson found the U.S.S.</p><p>Central America, insurance companies got a portion of the gold even though the claims were paid circa 1857 or 1858.&nbsp; Maybe maritime law is different?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
