I think there are several things that factor in here: '62 Topps is not a popular set, the card itself is pretty plain and Mantle's '62 year was not as impressive as '61. Still based on the low population of the '62 All Star it seems to me to be underpriced.

The total population is similar. All 1962 Topps cards are harder than 1961 Topps cards in high grade because of the wood borders.
