25 vinyl pressings of Toy / Touched are listed here, from 17 countries, released between 1968 and 1969.
The earliest pressings are from 1968, in Netherlands, UK, Australia, Belgium and more. One of them is Decca AT 15128.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use AT 15128, F.22852, F 22852, Y-8611) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AA 15 128 1F 1 670 ℗ 1968 11 , and AA 15 128 2F 1 670 ℗ 1968 11 ,. 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.
