I have 80 pieces of Myott Medici china made in Staffordshire, England, purchased in the 1940s. The stamp on the back reads reg 834633 and there is a number 4745. The pieces are in very good condition with some slight crazing and one cup has a slight chip. What is the value of this china set and is $300 a fair offer for it?
