It definitely has prices higher than I would have expected given its late production; PSA auction prices show $340+ for PSA 6, up to $1,200 for PSA 9 and $3,300 for PSA 10
EDITED TO ADD: Just saw that all the post-1970 World Series cards definitely are priced higher after a quick search on eBay -- makes sense given that there are a lot fewer overall cards in circulation, given they were printed later in shorter quantity. Also seems more people had the later ones graded (as a percent of the total ones sold), which makes sense since they're rarer overall.

The 1971 set had World Series cards from 1903-1970. The 1978 set had World Series cards from 1903-1977. There are no double printed cards in the set that I know of, so 1971-1977 would be available in much smaller quantities. The 1978 cards were also only available through Good Humor, where the 1971 set was available through normal Fleer channels.
