There are so many ways the data can be sliced. Tell me the answer you want and I'll show you the statistics to back up that answer
Searching Ebay sales only goes back 60 days. There could be seasonal variations, demographic biases, etc.
My biased opinion is that the Topps Cards from the 1950s were probably the most collected ever. That's based on the popularity of cards and baseball in that era. My view is also skewed by my love for the 1953-55 Topps cards. Personally, I'm just glad that the 1968 Topps set didn't make the top of the list. I just can't find it in me to love that set.
