Avocado Album Vinyl

Hi!  For my bday, my son bought what was advertised as an original issue vinyl.  I have the reissue and we cannot tell if he bought the original issue or reissue.  Does anyone have any pointers?  Anything to look for?  We didn't notice any dates or anything like that.  Really appreciate any help.  Cheers!

    The matrix/runout is what’s carved in the middle of the record between the center label and where the grooves end.

    Isn't the mixing of the actual album also different. Or is that a third reissue.
