36 vinyl pressings of Maybe I'm Amazed are listed here, from 18 countries, released between 1976 and 2013.
The earliest pressings are from 1976, in Brazil, Canada, Chile, Germany and more. One of them is MPL MP-06.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MP-06, 4385, 1271, 1C 006-98 701) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 7YCE-21791 and 7YCE-21792. 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.
