35 vinyl pressings of Provocative Percussion Volume 2 are listed here, from 14 countries, released between 1959 and 1972.
The earliest pressings are from 1959, in Germany. One of them is Command RS 810 SD.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RS 810 SD) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, RS-SD-810 AA-2LS II PI 1 and RS-SD-810 BB-2LS R-1 PI 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.
