Together with various other assets, the total came to 15,150 f. Volgens die inventaris verdeelt ende is vercocht door den afslager: 1,770 f. 16 st. ende noch 615 f. 17 st. Oopie Copit heeft behouden de weder helft 1,770 f. So that the movable goods are valued in total at 4,157 f. 10 st., half of which was sold and half kept by Oopje Copit. Among the goods that apparently were not recorded in the present inventory: een schilderij van Josep ende Maria door Rembrandt, two pearl earrings, and a diamond ring.
