14 vinyl pressings of Indent are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1973 and 2019.
The earliest pressings are from 1973, in US. One of them is Unit Core Records 30555.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 30555) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 30555-B̶A QCA SCM and 30555-B QCA SCM ②. 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.
