16 vinyl pressings of Amore Grande Amore Libero are listed here, from 6 countries, released between 1975 and 1976.

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use TPBO 1115, 42524, 6.11750, SP-4397) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, EKAS 28308 2S 1B 7 and EKAS 28309 2S 1A 10 11. 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.
