hogykins, is the frame size 58cm? If so, we also know that an early version of the "self-describing" serial number was used in May, 1984. The size code is above the "Cinelli" cast in logo, and the E8466 date and production number is below it (580JE8466).

Fascinating.
Stan,

I have an E84 with the serial number on the BB. 535 A above Cinelli and E84 120 below Cinelli. Just to throw a loop into things mine's an 'Elite Paramount'.
