13 vinyl pressings of Limbo are listed here, from 2 countries, released between 2020 and 2023.
The earliest pressings are from 2020, in USA & Europe. One of them is Season Of Mist SOM 556LP, released July 24, 2020.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SOM 556LP) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 29661 1A SOM556LP and 29661 1B SOM556LP. 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.
