Default Singer Featherweight 221-0

I may be getting this confused with the 201, but is there a Singer Featherweight 221-1 and 221-0? Mine has the 221-0 at least that is what it looks like. the 0 is under the rivet. Here are her specs AM784482[TABLE="class: center collapse bordertable ninefivepcent alternate, width: 934"]

I do want to sell her, but I am so afraid of shipping. I bought a 201 on ebay one time that came to me with the frame broken. I guess they thought cast iron was invincible and put it in a box that just fit and had newspaper around it. That's not saying I would pack it like that. I would probably buy all the bubble wrap and styrofoam in town to pack her. We have a booth at the Warrenton, Tx Antiques Week and I may take it up there, but then again I don't want a bunch of people handling her wrong.
Any advice would be appreciated. I see them selling for good money on ebay. This little girl is so pretty but I'm not a quilter and it seems a waste for her not to have a quilter for an owner.

PS: If this should be on the selling part of the forum I apologize, I mainly wanted to find out about the -0 and -1 so I could describe her properly
