20 vinyl pressings of The Best Of Charley Pride Vol. II are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1972 and 1983.
The earliest pressings are from 1972, in US, UK, Canada, Australia and more. One of them is RCA Victor LSP-4682.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LSP-4682, LSA 3105, 38-379) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, BPRS-1107 2S Ⅰ A4 and BPRS-1108 2S Ⅰ B6. 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.
