24 vinyl pressings of La Chèvre De Monsieur Seguin are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1955 and 1981.
The earliest pressings are from 1955, in France. One of them is Disques Decca EFM 455.543.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use EFM 455.543) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, Lone 45 11129 6R3 and Lone 45 11130 3R3. 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.
