49 vinyl pressings of I Who Have Nothing are listed here, from 23 countries, released between 1970 and 1972.
The earliest pressings are from 1970, in UK, US, Argentina, Belgium and more. One of them is Decca SKL 5072.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SKL 5072, SKLI 5072, LK 5072, XPAS 71039) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ZAL-10144-P-1L and ZAL-10177-P-1W. 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.
