How to identify and value my Bianchi brava 24 speed?

I have searched all over the bike in all the "usual" places that the internet tells me a serial number might be, but have found none. My stepmother gave me the bike years ago, but I don't know much about it. It rides well, but I don't use it that often, and just want to know more info about it (like where the serial number is, the year, whatever I can get!)

It's 52cm, has the original paint, and has stickers that say "Campigne del mondo", and "Edoardo bianchi- fabrica italiana velocipedi".

I've uploaded an an album with photos of the bike. I tried sharing the link but this is a new profile so the site won't let me. The album is in my gallery though!
Any clues would be greatly appreciated!

The bike in question is a mid 90's Brava which was mid level sports entry level race model offered in the extra small size basic tig welded chro-mo 520 frame set with just ok basic component's for the time it was buiilt. In really good condition should be worth $250-300 nothing special but a very nice basic small bike. The serial number is likely on the underside of the BB flip the bike over and look closely between the crank arms and you should find it.

I think it's a 2000, but I agre with a new price of $700+/- I think getting more that 300+/- unless it is in tip top condition. https://bikepedia.azurewebsites.net/...spx?item=45706
