Description Hinged lid, still has hinge pin. 4 legs that the base sits on vs. sitting flat to the table. One one side there is an engraved flower sitting on a vine or branch. Which means to one side the branch jets out with leaves, to the other side you see the beginning of the branch with a few leaves. I am not sure yet if I want to sell the item, but I would like to know the approximate value of it.
Category Silver and Silver Overlay
Medium Silver, Quadruple
Distinguishing marks Marked with an oval that reads Beacon Silver Co. along the inside top of the oval. The inside bottom of the oval reads Tauton Mass. Center of the oval reads QUADRUPLE. and below the oval it is numbered 0865

 Did you ever get an answer?  I have the exact same teapot I got at an estate sale.  Would like to know the value.  Thanks.  Oh and it has a hand etched number above the Beacon stamp that reads 4048.  ???
