10 vinyl pressings of Gonna Miss Her Mississippi are listed here, from 8 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1971, in UK, Belgium, Denmark, Germany and more. One of them is Deram DM 340.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DM 340, DM 340 Y, 6101 008, DM.340) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, DR-49106-T2-1C H 1 and DR-47885-T1-1C C 1. 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.
