Antique Tea Set

Description

I have a 12 place (cup) tea set complete with saucers, plates, a milk jug and bowl that I would like more information on and to know if it is of value. I have uploaded a photo of one of the cups and the only identifying mark (a number handwritten on the bottom of each item). All items are as per the sample, no cracks or blemishes, the pattern and gold edging is crisp and unworn.
