Can you help me ID this vintage Bianchi?

Good morning bike enthusiasts! Meet a bike ignoramus! I literally have just the basics of bike knowledge, but think I might have a gem on my hands that I am looking to ID and possibly sell. I bought this bike for a song, because it was gorgeous and I was competing in a triathlon on a hand built bike from bits and parts from the recyler (her name is the Hussy, because she's fast and gives everyone a good time... But enough about her). I have a nameless ( as in there is no model name on the frame) vintage, Celeste blue, 1980s?, Bianchi that I am trying to find out how much she's worth and a bit of her back story. So here's what I know:
Bianchi
Serial number 9D one one side then 6052 ... That's it!
Made in Italy
Lugged steel
SLX tubing ( Columbus foderi laminati)
No other info!
Do you think this was an original team bike?
What's it worth? I've been told numbers ranging from $250-2500 depending on the bike mechanic looking at it! Thoughts? Thank you so much for your help in advance! Maybe I'm getting excited over nothing!

It should be a 1989 and could be one of three different models depending on the associated component group. The chances of it being an actual team bicycle are quite small. Value is highly dependent on condition and location, so we'll need pictures and your market area.

Thank you! Ok so I live in the Aspen, Colorado area. It's in decent condition. Obviously used, but I think I've ridden it maybe 10 times in 5 years... The lady before me never rode it... And it lives in a dry shed. Not perfect, but not terrible!
And.... I am apparently a moron and can't figure out how to post pics... I see the mountain icon, but it asks for a url?
