Vicki,
  As we speak, I am entering an additional 1.5% undivided interest in TMS for a large group of objects, of which 2% interest was donated to us in 2001.  The entire collection will become the property of CWF upon the deaths of the owners/donors. Each object was accessioned in 2001 as a Gift. I recorded only 2%percent of appraised value in Valuation & Insurance at that time.  Now I'm adding the additional 1.5%.  Hope this helps.
