12 vinyl pressings of إنت فين والحب فين are listed here, from 4 countries, released between 1960 and 2017.
The earliest pressings are from 1960, in Egypt. One of them is Philips 434 007 HE.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 434 007 HE, 631702, 434.007) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AA 434 007 - E 1 and AA 434 007 - E 2. 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.
