My sense is that that's an entry level bike - I believe quite a few similar ones came into the US. Seems to me that general lug type was pretty common on run-of-the mill bikes of a certain age. I doubt it has much real collectability, but might be fun to own and ride for the right price.
(IMO, $600 is too much.)
