What separates the pressings

Oldest we track, 1988First released 1969; our table starts at 1988 (London, Japan). A copy older than 1988 predates everything here. Treat it as the find.
Collector variants2003 US: Reissue, Remastered, transparent clear; 2013 US: Reissue, Remastered, Clear, 180 Gram; 2016 USA & Canada: Deluxe Edition, Limited Edition, Reissue. Scarce on purpose; collectors pay for that.
JapanPressed to high standards and collected separately; a copy with the original obi strip is a different record to collectors than one without.
Reissues, 1993+10 pressings. Easy to find, priced as listening copies.

How to identify your copy

  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 1988 Japan pressing it reads “B-1- 1 1 1 + + L20P-1009B”. Trust the etching over the jacket: covers get traded around, dead wax stays put.

  3. 3

    Grade the condition. A clean copy and a worn one of the same pressing sit several grades, and several multiples, apart. Grade record and sleeve separately; see our grading guide.

Questions

Which pressing of Let It Bleed is worth the most?

Original 1969 pressings lead; they predate everything in our table, and that scarcity is the point. Among tracked copies, the 1988 pressings come first. Scarcer variants (the 2003 “Reissue, Remastered, transparent clear” and the 2013 “Reissue, Remastered, Clear, 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 1988 Japan pressing the runout reads “B-1- 1 1 1 + + L20P-1009B”. A period jacket with a later disc inside is still a reissue.

How much is Let It Bleed worth today?

Sellers ask from $7 for the later pressings we have quotes on; for the 2019 8584-1 the median ask is $42 over 8 listings (eBay, Sep 14, 2026). The 1988 pressings have no quoted range right now. Sold prices usually close lower. Scan your copy in the app for the range on your exact pressing and condition.
