I apologize for the digression and no disrespect meant to Yogi, but as a former news reporter I tend to get annoyed by hackneyed journalism.

I assume the use of "priceless" in these articles refers to the fact that if they are not returned, they CANNOT be replaced. they are unique items, trophies, rings, etc given to Yogi for his achievements. they each are 1 of 1's.
I truly hope he gets his items back.
PS- what would great, is if he comes out and says, that ALL of those items were REPLICAS that they made for the museum display, and that his REAL rings and trophies are tucked away in a vault.
