Victor Silver Co. teapot

Description

Needs cleaning for sure, but I don't want to clean it unless I know I should first. Bought in Boston in the late 1960s. Would like to know pattern and value.
Lid is attached with hinge. Finial is slightly bent. One small dent in teapot itself.
Should I polish it? What would the approximate value be?
Thank you.

I am curious if you ever received any information on this item. I have a similar piece that was probably from the same set, although mine is a water pitcher with the number 2062 on the bottom. I can't find any information online about this company other than it was merged into Internationl Silver Co. and that the quadruple plating process was pre-1912. I would appreciate any info you may have to share.
Thank you,
Angela
