About this record

The price spread from a Mint copy at 203.49 USD down to a VG at 96.39 USD highlights how crucial condition is for this 1991 European pressing of Michael Jackson's Dangerous. Pressed at the Sony/CBS plant in Haarlem, the runout matrix codes such as 01 465802 20 7A1 D confirm its origin.

This release features thin printed inner sleeves with lyrics and sometimes a distinctive round holographic sticker on the front sleeve stating "Sony Music epic 01.465802.20 Quality Guaranteed."

What drives its value

The value of this European pressing of Dangerous is driven by a significant price range from 203.49 USD for Mint copies to 53.55 USD for G+ condition, showing a steep premium for top grades. With 72 copies currently for sale around the lowest price of 10.34 USD and a strong community demand of 3619 wants against 12200 haves, the market remains active.

This pressing stands apart from later reissues like the 2015 and 2022 US and European Epic versions (catalogue 88875120931), placing higher value on the original 1991 Sony/CBS Haarlem pressing with etched runout details.

How to appraise this pressing

To verify this exact pressing, check for the catalogue numbers 465802 1 or EPC 465802 1 on the Epic label and confirm the pressing plant as Sony/CBS in Haarlem. The matrix runout inscriptions such as 01 465802 20 7A1 D and 01 465802 20 5B1 D are key identifiers, with etched letters and the part "oL" present.

The record includes thin printed inner sleeves with lyrics and may have a round holographic sticker on the front sleeve confirming authenticity. Grading should focus on the state of the vinyl and sleeve, given the price guide range from Mint at 203.49 USD to Poor at 10.71 USD.
