Paintings, jewellery, dinosaur teeth and militaria from both world wars were also taken.
Mr Hunt said: “I have three other partners and all of us have lost a great deal to the thieves, who took every piece of jewellery and anything with a high price tag.
“Even the till was completely emptied, including the coins. Fortunately we have photos of many of the most distinctive items.”
Mr Hunt said he hopes the fact the stolen items are distinctive will help people recognise them.
Police asked anyone with any information to report online or call 101 quoting serial 421 of 09/12.
