59 vinyl pressings of Miles Davis At Carnegie Hall are listed here, from 13 countries, released between 1962 and 2022.
The earliest pressings are from 1962, in US, UK, Japan, Argentina and more. One of them is Columbia CS 8612.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CS 8612, CL 1812, 8612, BPG 62081) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, XSM-56273-1E and XSM-56274-1L. 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.
