Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SKINT 58, SKI 669807 6, FAT 5, SKINT58P) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SKINT 58 A-1-1-1 Guy's THE EXCHANGE and SKINT 58 B-2-1-1. 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.
