If you go to Singer.com, there is a place to look up your serial number and find out the aproximate age of your machine. The 201 itself was made from about 1935 through the 1950's.(The Encylcopedia of Antique Sewing Machines by Charles Law: Third Edition) The k simply means it was made at the Factory in Kilbowie(sp?) Scotland.
The serial number of your machine would indicate it was manufactured in 1888. Singer machines manufactured prior to 1900 are considered vintage and are highly valued by collectors. For maximum value, the machine should be in good condition and have all its parts, including foot pedal and bobbin case. To verify the age of your machine and its possible value, call a Singer rep at 1-800-4-Singer. Watch E-Bay to see what buyers are paying for machines of this vintage.
