Claw derailleur, resin pedals, cottered crankset, sidepull brakes and heavily crimped chainstays indicate an entry level model, most likely a department store model. Unicrown forks indicate relatively modern, probably early 1990s. Serial number should help to date it.

It's a bottom of the line late 80's ATB Raliegh produced these in several place around the world not really rare or valuable. If everything works good worth about $75. I would consider it comparable to the the sub $100 bikes sold at Walmart currently.
