What's The Most Valuable Record In Your Collection?

I sold my copy of the Don Rendell/Ian Car box set when I had a crazy offer sent my way.....thoroughly regret it.
Probably the craziest of the ones I've posted is the Beck title, which is a 7" that was limited to 150 copies and sold only at one record shop, which happened to be my local. It was going for $300 shortly after its release in 2012, and now has settled down to a median of $150.
 
Pretty surprised at what some of my records are valued at currently. Prices have shifted quite a bit.

Top value based on median sales. Mostly box sets. Highest value is my Bill Evans 18 LP Complete Riverside box set, which also happens to be signed by Orrin Keepnews (founder of Riverside Records).

Top 25 is pretty static overall

I'd expect Copycat Killer to plummet soon (thankfullly) and the Lori McKenna remains a false pricing. Most of the movement otherwise is Phoebe related. Other items of note include Lorde's Melodrama Deluxe and MBDTF rising right fast.

The 26-50 has seen a lot more movement recently.

Been a while so here we go..
 
I can’t be the only one who has dozens of records with a MIN of $2-$3 but a MAX of $200-$300. In some cases, the discrepancy is even greater:

Aqualung and Are You Experienced? are my two biggest differences. But nothing like that.

Well, I guess technically the biggest difference is the Beatles Mono Box with the minimum being $600 and max being $2013... Still can't believe I got that deal...

I really, really wish they would repress those A Fine Frenzy albums. I want both of them so much.
Here's mine.

This one always skews my most valuable albums. The $2k one is signed by the band which makes it so much.

ETA: That $2K is not mine! I still have my OG that I bought at Tower Records in NYC, and sadly, it's not autographed :(

Sorted by median price... that Mad Season 10" is the most valuable for a single piece of vinyl. The PJ Constitution Hall Vault is 3 LPs as is the PJ20 set. Others in top row are box sets of 4 or more LPs
