104 vinyl pressings of Dancing Queen & That's Me are listed here, from 42 countries, released between 1976 and 2024.
The earliest pressings are from 1976, in Sweden, UK, US, Yugoslavia and more. One of them is Polar POS 1225.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use POS 1225, S EPC 4499, 45-3372, EPC S 4499) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, POS 1225 A and POS 1225 B. 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.
