Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SE-4668ST, SE 4668 ST, SE 4668ST, MGM-CS-8120) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SE4668 MGS2154-1 S/1 D.P. 12 [Blocky "S"] and SE4668ST MGS 2155 S/2 DP 21 [Blocky "S"].
