Responsa for Bava Kamma 222:6
הא מדקתני סיפא אם היה דבר שיש בו אחריות חייבין לשלם מכלל דרישא בגזילה קיימת עסקינן אמר לך רבא הכי קאמר אם הניח להם אביהם אחריות נכסים חייבין לשלם
does it not imply that even in the earlier clause<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Which states the law in the case of inconspicuous articles such as food and the like. ');"><sup>10</sup></span> we are dealing with a case where the misappropriated article was still in existence?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' And the heirs seem nevertheless to have the right to retain it. ');"><sup>11</sup></span>

A. The Gentile had no right to sell A's pledge; consequently, A has a right to redeem it.
