17 vinyl pressings of 1-2-3-4… Gimme Some More! are listed here, from 16 countries, released between 1977 and 1979.
The earliest pressings are from 1977, in Italy, Canada, Colombia, Germany and more. One of them is Baby Records LPX 21.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LPX 21, ss 6012, 9199 550, EDI 60477) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, LPX 21 A and LPX 21 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.
