14 vinyl pressings of Jane Live are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1976 and 2009.
The earliest pressings are from 1976, in Germany. One of them is Brain 80.001-2.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 80.001-2) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 80.001-2 0701 368 S.1 SST 1A P and 80.001-2 0701 368 S.2 SST P 1A. 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.
