17 vinyl pressings of Lucía Y Joaquín are listed here, from 11 countries, released between 1985 and 1987.
The earliest pressings are from 1985, in Spain, US, Costa Rica, Argentina and more. One of them is Epic EPC 26779.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use EPC 26779, DIL-11330, 1100901, 20677) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 26779-AO and 26779-BO. 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.
