Can an item be tracked by the patent number? Can't find a tea cup and saucer like it.

This is interesting...usually patterns are easy to find.
Here is a patent finder search engine. I have had some luck with it:
patft.uspto.gov/
Post back what you learn.
PS maybe replacements.com can ID it for you. They are lovely to work with to ID china patterns.
replacements.com probably knows what it is worth. They will offer you less than what they can sell it for.
Crown Victoria us the name 'Lovelace' with several different patterns but I have not seen one exactly like yours.
Since your pattern seems to be more rare than some of the Lovelace patterns it may be of a little higher value than the current value of other patterns which seems to be about $10-$12.
I'm not sure what you mean by patent number because I do not believe any china has a patent number on the china itself. Most likely a patent number would have to be found through the company but Crown Victoria does not have a site to contact for information.
Crown Victoria is classified as a 'middle class' china (not high end and not low end) but it is unusual that even Wikipedia does not have history of the company.
I do know that it was sold at Montgomery Ward stores in the 50s or 60s and you could get a 'free' piece each week when buying other pieces.
I believe the pattern is the one that is listed on most sites.
Your pattern is not common so it may sell more quickly and I would list it at $25 plus shipping.
