About this record
Four matrix runouts are etched into the dead wax of this Spanish pressing, and the one reading "00 2561 085 S19" ties the sides to a 1971 mastering run rather than to the 1983 release year printed on the record. The release notes give a second layer: the A and B sides carry 25 39 185 and 25 61 085 catalogs, while the C side carries 25 39 186-A and 25 61 086-A, so the same disc is cross-referenced to two numbering systems.
Together these details make this a record where the runout strings matter as much as the cover.
What drives its value
The price guide for this copy runs from 21.42 USD at Mint down to 10.15 USD at VG, with VG+ at 14.66 USD, NM at 19.17 USD, and G+ at 5.64 USD. Those endpoints show how steeply value falls once surface wear is visible, so a buyer should grade honestly before paying near the top of the range.
The market snapshot shows 7 copies for sale, with the lowest listed price at 3.99 USD, which sits well below the VG figure and signals that many sellers are pricing below guide. Community demand is modest: 33 collectors have the release and 4 want it, so supply currently outweighs demand.
The only other pressing on file is an Argentine issue on Deutsche Grammophon under catalogue 2539 185/6, with no year recorded. Because the Spanish copy is the one with the 1971 matrix trail and the cross-referenced catalogs, it is the version the guide prices, and the Argentine issue should not be assumed to carry the same value.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by reading the dead wax rather than relying on the front cover. The four runout strings in the facts include "4 (P) 1971 D71 V 00 2561 085 S19" and "7 (P) 1971 F71 Z 00 2561 085 S20=4", and a copy should show matrix stamps consistent with these, including the 1971 (P) date and the 00 2561 085 and 00 2561 086 numbers.
Check that the catalogue number on the spine or label reads 2726 066, which is the catalogue number given for this release. Verify the side structure against the release notes: A and B should show 25 39 185 and 25 61 085 variants, and C should show 25 39 186-A and 25 61 086-A.
The record is Spanish, so the label and jacket should identify a Spanish pressing rather than the Argentine catalogue 2539 185/6. Grade the vinyl under a strong light on both faces, checking each side's playing surface and the run-in and run-out grooves.
Give the jacket and inner sleeve their own grade, since wear to either affects the final price.

Frequently asked
What is a VG+ copy of this record worth?
The price guide lists a VG+ copy at 14.66 USD. This is an estimate as of the guide date, and actual sales may differ.
What is a Mint copy worth?
The price guide lists a Mint copy at 21.42 USD. This is an estimate as of the guide date, and a copy only earns that figure if it is genuinely Mint in both vinyl and jacket.
How do I know this is the Spanish pressing and not the Argentine one?
The Argentine pressing is listed under catalogue 2539 185/6 with no year given. Check the catalogue number on the label and jacket against the Spanish facts: the release lists 2726 066 as the catalogue number, and the dead-wax matrix strings should include the 1971 (P) date and the 00 2561 085 and 00 2561 086 numbers.
Why do the runout strings show 1971 when the record is dated 1983?
The matrix stamps carry 1971 (P) dates, which record when the masters were made. The 1983 year is the release date, so the record reflects a reissue of 1971 material, which is consistent with the reissue format description.
Is this record worth buying now given the supply?
The market snapshot shows 7 copies for sale, with the lowest listed price at 3.99 USD. Community data shows 33 owners and 4 people wanting it, so supply is currently ahead of demand. A buyer can reasonably wait for a copy in the grade they need rather than paying the top of the price range.
