The G2775438 was built in 1913, according to the Singer database: http://www.singerco.com/admin-support/machine-serial-numbers/single-letter . This serial number is for a Model 66 (built after March 19, 1913). The value depends on the condition and the specific cabinet and accessories that are with the machine. A worn model 66-1 with a basic cabinet is ~$50. The higher end cabinets can raise the price to $125. (Those were the prices ~10 years ago.) Someone wanted $175 for an advertised good condition model 66-1 with a really good cabinet on Etsy a few years ago.
Value is too subjective to estimate. There are many things that go into value, ie working condition, physical condition, rarity, accessories included, where it's located...
You can search for recent sales or current listings that may give you some idea of your machine's value.
take the details to an antique shop ( photo helps) to get an idea of the value
treadle sewing machines fetch a good sum so take the time to have it valued
Value is subjective as it is determined by several things, ie visual condition (wear & tear), operational condition, the accessories included (presser feet, owner's manual, carrying case, etc), rarity, its geographical location, and ultimately, how much a buyer is willing to pay. There were a lot of these machines made (good machines though), so their rarity may not be great. Unless the machine is in pristine condition, most people who would want this machine would plan to use it to sew, not so much for its value as an antique, etc. You can check auction sites for recent listings and sales to get an idea.
If it is the K number, there were 20,000 machines made. So, the likelihood is that there are still a lot of them around. Value is very subjective based on several things including the physical and mechanical condition, accessories included, rarity of the model, etc. FWIW, it seems that the wood cabinets really don't appear to add much, if anything, to the value.
