Show single cards that you have HOARDED!
What single cards have you poured money into, invested in, or just collected for the heck of it!
Challenge - show and tell your hoard of a single card (and include total count) in any of these categories:
Common Base card
Rookie Card
Parallel
Insert
Serial numbered card
Memorabilia card
Autograph card
Then again if you hoard, can you even find the stuff?
Here's a couple:
No pic, but back in the early 90s, I bought 1,600 count card lots of Glenn Davis, Howard Johnson, Rickey Henderson and Bert Saberhagen (all 1990 Topps, I think). Still have them somewhere.
Here's 132 1997 Collector's Edge Excalibur Game Gear (Helmet) Autograph of Mark Brunell (No Serial # Variant)
With 20+ years collecting, this is the most comprehensive single player collection in the world! Beckett lists 4000+ cards - I'm at 95% completion!

At one point I had acquired 6 of 2011 Finest Marshawn Lync Red Refractors #/25. Then I realized I really didn't have a point to hoarding this particular card so I traded one away to a Seahawks fan on the board here and have all but one listed FT. I imagined other set or player collector's not having a chance to add to their collections which would be a shame. I'm hanging onto the one I pulled from a pack.

That is an interesting hoarding example. You could build your own helmet.
I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.

Does this count?
750 1992 Wild Card Stat Smashers Thurman Thomas. I really like this card lol
BTW I have been hoarding 2012 Royale All Pros 50 inserts limited to 40, just not single players. Pretty much every one that comes up, I try to snatch them all

Couple of pretty cool hoards!
I started to "hoard" (quotes because I only had four or five) Edgerrin's 2000 SPx WM ball/jsy/au /225, but ended up missing a couple in favor of 1999 needs which prompted me to shelve the idea. It always comes back to the 99s.

I don't have a picture of them all, but about 10 years back, a local seller dumped his entire Rob Johnson inventory for $40 and I walked away with about 10,000 cards, including 650 of this rookie:
