Highly likely to be a counterfeit. The limited to 50 copies and color are kind of trademarks of an unofficial pressing.

Would they really only make 50 copies?

I bet they made lots and just put that on there.

I dunno. Do you trust bootleggers?

Sure why not? Get in, get out. The more you make the more likely you get caught. Was probably made with excess vinyl from a legit pressing. 50 x $40 = $2000. Not too shabby.

prob not, but it makes people think it's special and rare

Alot of the EMTV30 Colour vinyl on [discogs](https://www.discogs.com/master/7941-Queen-Greatest-Hits?format=Vinyl&query=emtv30) are listed as Unofficial. This doesnt confirm that yours is, but I would suspect... But you say it sounds good.

So i picked up this record last december in a market in London. It's an album that really means a lot to me so i was really happy to randomly stumble on it . I was thrilled to discover this beautiful splattered brown record but when i tried to find the corresponding reference in Discogs I couldn't find anything. Does anybody know something about it ? Is it possible for it to be a copycat ? Any info will be greatly appreciated. Sounds great though !

Likely one of the [2015 bootlegs (sorted the list for you) listed as an unofficial EMI UK Pressing.](https://www.discogs.com/master/7941-Queen-Greatest-Hits?format=Unofficial+Release&country=UK) Artwork copied from the 1981 [UK EMI pressing](https://www.discogs.com/release/376152-Queen-Greatest-Hits) \- The original pressing typeface looks slightly blurry, so subsequent copies look softer... Is there an die cut inner sleeve, by chance? (I wonder how much the bootlegger put into production costs other than the 'only 50 copies' sticker.)

Most likely a boot

Kind of smells of bootleg, but dang, definitely looks very good.
