Moskow Diskow was first pressed on vinyl in 1979. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.

52 vinyl pressings of Moskow Diskow are listed here, from 21 countries, released between 1979 and 2010.
The earliest pressings are from 1979, in France, UK, US, Germany and more. One of them is Vogue 45.X. 1172.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 45.X. 1172, SIR 4017 (T), SIR 4017, SIR 4020 (T)) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 45X 1172A1 and 45X 1172 B1. 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.
