10 vinyl pressings of World Maker are listed here, from 1 country.
The earliest pressings are from 2025, in Germany. One of them is Pelagic Records PEL 296-V, released October 24, 2025.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PEL 296-V, PEL296-V) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 303617E1/B 02331833 and 303617E2/B 02330313. 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.
