16 vinyl pressings of Only God Can Judge Me are listed here, from 1 country, released between 2008 and 2021.
The earliest pressings are from 2008, in US. One of them is Asian Man Records ASM172, released November 17, 2008.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ASM172) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S-67098 DC 7689-ASM172-10-(A) and S-67099 DC 7689-ASM172-1 (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.
