The machine is produced in 1859. It is in good condition and working.
It was given to my grandmother by a very old lady, after my grandmother passed away we wanted to keep it as a memory..

I wanted to know if it has a value or not, since I believe that this machine is really rare found and could be considered as an highly valued antique...

This is a German low arm Transverse Shuttle made by Carl Konig & Co, of Kaiserslautern. How did you work out 1859 as the date? As for value, it's not a common brand, however sewing machines of this style are not rare. You would have to search ebay listings or ask an antique dealer. They may have gotten into trouble for using the Singer name - http://www.sil.si.edu/DigitalCollections/Trade-Literature/Sewing-Machines/NMAHTEX/2696/imagepages/image1.htm
