If you don't know then you don't know. It's not made anymore and I can't find much information on it. Clearly it spanned multiple years but maybe someone can narrow it down based on the design and BCD.

Sugino used the 151 standard prior to using 144, thus why I asked about the BCD. The comments above are correct, that will be hard to date due to the long production time. Give the nice folks over in C&V a shot.

those are really nice rings! some shops have tubs of them in 144 and 151---nice find!
some of them have "niku-nuki" on the backside---some of the meat is removed for lighter ring.

151 BCD was pre-1967 for Campy stuff and I think it's about the same for Sugino since they just copied Campy back then. So your ring is probably 1968-199_ or so. Those are cool chainrings though, my favorite style. I had Cycleunderground make me one in that cutout style in 151 BCD so I didn't have to use the real Sugino one I have, and I'm looking to get one made in 110BCD for my cross bike. I just like them more than the more modern style

I have a black one on my Steamroller - also from the mid 80's. Nice chainring. I've noticed that mine does seem a bit noisier than other chainrings but not terribly so.
