There is loss in the theft. But there is no loss other than joy. Emotions have no value in the open market. I have never heard of a civil case of the theft of a major collectible where damages are claimed for "loss of joy".

Loss of Joy would certainly be quantifiable in my estimation. It may be a simple matter of semantics between, Loss of Use, Loss of Joy and Pain & Suffering. Glad I'm not a judge.
