SL is Columbus Strada Leggera tubing. I assume the 201 is just a designation specifically for the tubes Battaglin got from them. Main traingle should be butted 0.6/0.9.

The easiest way to narrow down the year will be the groupset. I'm not good at road stuff, but if that's 2nd generation New Success then I think that suggests 1989-1992.

I can't say if it's a rare bike or not. I'm not an expert on road bikes. I live near the Pinarello and Battaglin factories and met Mr. Battaglin in person at his shop. I can only tell you that in the 1990s, both Pinarello and Battaglin made many bicycles in limited numbers, prototypes/production bikes in the same time. I've seen mountain bikes with frames I've never seen before, original branded Pinarello and Battaglin, that weren't listed in the official catalogs.
