How do I tell if my copy of 100 M.P.H. is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MOGO 4012, MLF 426, 2473 930, 0064.027) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MOGO 4012 A and MOGO 4012 B. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is 100 M.P.H. on vinyl worth?

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.
