13 vinyl pressings of Symphony In D / Septet are listed here, from 7 countries, released between 1953 and 1958.
The earliest pressings are from 1953, in US, Canada, Italy. One of them is RCA Victor Red Seal LM 1745.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LM 1745, WDM 1745, A 12 R-0046) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, E3RP-5003 and E3RP-5004. 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.
