15 vinyl pressings of You Don't Know What You've Got are listed here, from 9 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1961, in US, UK, Australia, Austria and more. One of them is Gone Records Gone 5108, released July 1961.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use Gone 5108, 45-R 4820, A8047, O 28501) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 45 - G-793 Δ39406 Bell Sound [MR logo] and 45 - G-794 Δ39406-1 Bell Sound [MR logo]. 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.
