Interesting...
Compton Lumber Co. in Washington State lists it at 71#.
(http://www.comptonlbr.com/weight-sheet.html)
And there's this "Hardwood plywood typically weighs around 55 lbs. per
3/4-in.-thick sheet. Utility plywood can be much heavier, however. A
3/4-in.-thick sheet of BC fir plywood, for example, can weigh more
than 70 lbs. By comparison, a full sheet of 1/4-in. birch plywood
weighs only 12 lbs." from

And file:///C:/Users/pschrein/Downloads/GE-1_Weights_Building_Materials.pdf
gives a range of 70.4-80# per sheet of 3/4 ply.
