All of my original vinyl, records I bought in the 60s/70s, are prized. However, I have a mint condition, original vinyl Pink Floyd "Ummagumma" from 1969 that I prize the most.
How about you?

Still sealed Badfinger “Straight Up” lp. It has a Woolco price sticker on the plastic wrap with $3.99.

I bought it in the early ‘90s from a record store listing in Goldmine Magazine. IIRC, I paid $26 or $28 at the time.

Skynyrd's last album with the band in flames, on the shelf for 3 days before being pulled due to the plane crash.

I have this one. First edition. It is archived. I play the Record Store Day version that came out a few years ago.

I have two, both singles:
Get Back, b/w Don’t Let Me Down, original 1969 release with sleeve, first record I ever bought
That Thing You Do, b/w Dance With Me Tonight, with picture sleeve - yep, the record record record (not the re-issue that came out with the soundtrack LP last year, although that’s cool too)

I have a signed Al DiMeola that I inherited from my deceased brother. That's probably my most prized vinyl.

I’m going to get killed but Taylor Swift. I’m not sure which one it is but my 16 year old daughter spends time with me if I play it.

Randy Newman - Good Old Boys

It was my dad's favorite album. I've kept his copy all these years.

I have my Dad's original pressing of Eat a Peach.

Ain't Wasting Time No More is just a tad slower than what is on the CD and its fantastic.

We'll listen to your play list when we get a round in together.

ETA: I bought and still have most of The Beatles rekkids the day they were released in America.

idk about prized, but maybe the most interesting/unique record I have is a sealed picture disc of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Pressed sometime in the '70s. Bought it for 5 bucks. Not sure how much it would go for if I tried to sell it.
