If you were born after the 2000’s, you may not know very much about the days of CDs, cassettes and vinyls. These were the earliest ways for music to be produced and distributed, and each medium came with its own share of benefits and downsides at the time of its popularity. Although all three of these methods have been replaced by streaming services like Spotify, Apple Music and Deezer these days, there are still many record collectors who have their old collection of vinyls on hand for a rainy day when they need a bit of money. Some of these old vinyls are so incredibly rare that they could fetch anywhere from five to six figures today. If you happen to have any of the vinyls on our list here, you may be in for a big surprise when you see how much it is worth now.

Led Zeppelin — Led Zeppelin (1969)

Led Zeppelin isn’t known as one of the best rock bands of all time for no reason. Towards the end of the 1960’s they were experimenting heavily with their sound, ushering in a new era of bands incorporating elements of other genres into their conventional sound. The result is a self-titled album that went down in history as one of the best they ever released. An original vinyl for this record would earn any collector upwards of a thousand dollars at auction.
