12 vinyl pressings of Have You Met Miss Jones? are listed here, from 6 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1968, in US, Australia, Germany, Japan and more. One of them is A&M Records SP 3007.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SP 3007, LP-2007, SAML 932,958, 212 046) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 3013 [MR logo] △11790 and 3014 [MR logo] △11790-X. 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.
