The earliest pressings are from 1970, in Italy, Australia. One of them is RCA Italiana PM 3531, released June 1970.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PM 3531, PM-3531) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ZKAW 25262 3S 1A 3 and ZKAW 25263 3S 1A 5. 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.
