The earliest pressings are from 1975, in US, Costa Rica, Mexico, Peru and more. One of them is Fania Records XSLP #00480.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use XSLP #00480, 1005129, SLP 00480, LPS-0176) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SLP-00480-A I GOL STERLING and SLP-00480-B I GOL STERLING. 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.
