16 vinyl pressings of Pianonegro are listed here, from 7 countries, released between 1990 and 1999.
The earliest pressings are from 1990, in Italy, US, UK, Australia and more. One of them is DWA (Dance World Attack) DWA 00.18.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DWA 00.18, DWA 00.13, 656081 7, 656081 6) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, DWA 00.18 A and DWA 00.18 B. 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.
