11 vinyl pressings of Joue Julio Iglesias are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1981 and 1982.
The earliest pressings are from 1981, in Netherlands, US, Canada, Costa Rica and more. One of them is CBS CBS 85021.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CBS 85021, DML-51302, PFC 90658, 100607) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 01-85021-1A-1 A and 01-85021-1B-1 A. 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.
