It depends on the density of the plywood. This site shows some plywood densities in kg/m^3. Let's say your plywood is 500 kg/m^3 (which is at the low end of the plywood densities isted on that page). Converting the dimensions of the plywood to meters gives the following:

height: 4 ft = 4 ft * (12 in/ft) * (2.54 cm/in) * (1m/100cm) = 1.22 m

width: 8 ft = 8 ft * (12 in/ft) * (2.54 cm/in) * (1m/100cm) = 2.44 m

thickness: 18 mm * (1m/1000mm) = .018 m

The volume of the plywood is height * weight * thickness = 1.22 * 2.44 * .018 = .0535 m^3.

Weight is density * volume. So, at 500 kg/m^3, the plywood would weigh: 500*.0535 = 26.8 kg. 1 kg is approximately 2.2 pounds, so 26.8 kg is 26.8 kg * (2.2 lb/kg) = 58.9 pounds. If, however for example, your plywood is 700 kg/m^3, it would weigh 40% more, or 82.5 pounds.

What is the density of Baltic birch plywood?

The birch veneer is actually accounts for a small portion of the plywood's density. The core layers are more important. The Purebond plywood that I see at my local home despot is probably from Columbia Forest Products. According to their website, my plywood on the east coast is composed of a combination of aspen and fir layers. Birch has a density of 670 kg/m3, Aspen 420 kg/m3, and Fir 530 kg/m3. If you don't know what kg/m3 means, I did an estimate on the math. Guessing that the board is 2/3 Fir and 1/3 Aspen, and neglecting the millimeter of birch on top, the weighted average density is 494 kg/m3 or about 31 lb/ft3. If you still don't know what lb/ft3 means, basically a 4 by 8 sheet of plywood, 3/4" thick, should weight about 59 pounds. A half inch thick sheet, should weight about 39 pounds; and a quarter inch thick sheet should weigh in at around 18 pounds.
