Peugeot serial numbers are notoriously "random," but a 7-digit number starting with 2 would normally indicate a 1972 manufacture date. This resembles the AO-8 model sold in the US, but with highlighted lugs and P*-10 gearing (52-45 / 14-21, rather than something like 50-36 / 14-26 or 52-40 / 14-28).
