30 vinyl pressings of 100cc Greatest Hits Of 10cc are listed here, from 12 countries, released between 1975 and 1990.
The earliest pressings are from 1975, in UK, US, Germany, Australia and more. One of them is UK Records UKAL 1012, released May 1975.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use UKAL 1012, UKAL. 1012, UKS 53110, 6.22265 AS) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, XZAL-13754.P-1W and XZAL-13755.P-1W. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
