Be very careful about some of the advice given here. Look up the exact model online and find out it's true value. Smiles, MH
While I agree a early 80's 720 drop bar touring bike is top of the line, the OP's statement of "Multi-track 720" as well as "womens" leads me to believe that the bike is actually a newer (90's?) entry level hybrid.
I don't know if any of the "700 series" you refer to were ever labeled as "Multi track" or came in a womens model but I suspect not. I also believe it to have been phased out by the mid eighties and the 520 as top of the line touring going forward.
