What separates the pressings

Oldest we track, 1981First released 1976; our table starts at 1981 (Kirshner, US). A copy older than 1981 predates everything here. Treat it as the find.
Collector variants1981 US: Promo, Reissue, Remastered; 2008 Germany: Reissue, Test Pressing, 180 Gram; 2023 Italy: Limited Edition, Reissue, Blue. Short runs like these often bring more than a standard early copy.
Reissues, 2008+4 pressings. Easy to find, priced as listening copies.

How to identify your copy

Three checks, in the order worth doing them.

  1. 1

    Match the catalog number. It is printed on the spine and the record label. Check it together with the country against the pressings table above: the same number can appear in more than one country.

  2. 2

    Read the runout. The code etched in the dead wax near the label names the exact pressing. On the 1981 US pressing it reads “HAL 44224” on side one and “HBL 44224” on side two. Jackets get swapped over the decades; the runout does not.

  3. 3

    Grade the condition. The same pressing can be worth several times more in near mint than in VG. Grade the vinyl and the sleeve separately — our grading guide shows the standard scale.

A 1976 jacket with a later disc inside is a reissue in an original sleeve. Judge the pressing by the runout etching and the label, never by the cover.

Questions

Which pressing of Leftoverture is worth the most?

Original 1976 pressings lead; they predate everything in our table, and that scarcity is the point. Among tracked copies, the 1981 pressings come first. Scarcer variants (the 1981 “Promo, Reissue, Remastered” and the 2008 “Reissue, Test Pressing, 180 Gram”) can beat an ordinary early copy. After that it is all condition: the gap between near mint and VG is usually larger than the gap between pressings.

How do I tell which pressing I have?

Match the catalog number on the spine and label against the table above, check the country, then read the etched code in the runout groove. On the 1981 US pressing the runout reads “HAL 44224”. A period jacket with a later disc inside is still a reissue.

How much is Leftoverture worth today?

Market prices move, so a static number goes stale fast. Scan the record in the RecordScout app: it identifies your exact pressing from the label and shows a current value range for its condition.
