21 vinyl pressings of 6a Raccolta are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1965 and 1981.

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ms A 77110, SKL 4281, KL.281, SJET-7781) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, DST 050575 22-11-65 and DST 050576 22-11-65. 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.
