The property shall be returned to the owner if, within such time as may be specified in the notice, the owner:

(A) Pays to the commissioner or the commissioner's delegate an amount equal to the appraised value; or

(B) Gives bond in such form with such sureties, and, in such amount as the commissioner or the commissioner's delegate shall prescribe, to pay the appraised amount at such time as the commissioner or the commissioner's delegate determines to be appropriate in the circumstances;

(2) IMMEDIATE SALE. If the owner does not pay such amount or furnish such bond in accordance with this section, the commissioner or the commissioner's delegate shall as soon as practicable make public sale of the property in accordance with such regulations as may be prescribed by the commissioner.
