The earliest pressings are from 2002, in UK, Italy, Europe, Germany and more. One of them is Serious Records SERR04912.

How do I tell if my copy of Ducktoy is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SERR04912, 12DUCKDJ002, 12DUCKDJ001, SPY 35) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SERR 4912-2 A and SERR 04912-B.
