30 vinyl pressings of Präludien Und Fugen are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1962 and 2011.
The earliest pressings are from 1963, in Netherlands. One of them is Philips 835 204 AY.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 835 204 AY, A 02327 L) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 6 AA 835 204 1Y 1 670 111 and 6 AA 835 204 2Y 1 670 1. 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.
