My LED ZEP 2 pressing anything special

The LP certainly sounds good, and appears as heavy as my Classic records pressing. It's a US first press as per Discogs, cat # SD19127. In the deadwax is: atlantic studios DK, as well as ST A 6916 72 AA. Strangely there is also a large S w/ small R perched inside the top of the S, and a small C in the bottom.

5-digit number of LZ 2 isn't a first press.

It's one of the good sounding releases and definitely worth keeping, but it's 1977 re-issue according to the information provided.
The first US pressing was Sterling mastered. It only compromises to the first UK issue sonically, but outperforms any other re-issues including MOFI, Classic and current. Listeners that value more quiet background will certainly like Classic records re-issue. To me it's missing lots of sound I can hear in first press.
