15 vinyl pressings of In Ginocchio Da Te are listed here, from 8 countries, released between 1964 and 1998.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in Italy, US, Canada, Egypt and more. One of them is RCA Italiana PM45-3263.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PM45-3263, PM 45 3263, F4-5, 57-3334) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PKAW 22277 1S 1A 1C 10 and PKAW 22278 2S 1A 15. 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.
