15 vinyl pressings of Can't You See That She's Mine are listed here, from 12 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in UK, Australia, Finland, India and more. One of them is Columbia DB 7291, released June 1964.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DB 7291, DO-4483, 45-DYC 1183, SCMQ 1805) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 7XCA 26544-2N 0 KT 2 and 7XCA 26545-1U AA KT 2. 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.
