12 vinyl pressings of Yummy, Yummy, Yummy are listed here, from 8 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1969, in UK, US, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Liberty LBS 83183, released May 1969.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LBS 83183, LBL 83183E, LST 7609, LST-7609) 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.
