41 vinyl pressings of Sinfonie Nr. 1 C-moll Op. 68 are listed here, from 13 countries, released between 1960 and 2017.
The earliest pressings are from 1960, in Germany. One of them is Deutsche Grammophon LPM 18 613, released February 1960.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LPM 18 613, 138 113 SLPM) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. 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.
