My grandfather and I once found a single 1956 Luis Aparicio— a HOF rookie card—behind the stove in his sister’s apartment. Doubtless it belonged to his nephew, and fell back there in 1956 or thereabouts. Would some call BS on that story because it was a star card and no others were found?

I wouldn't call BS on that find, but also not sure I would compare an Aparicio RC with a Croft's Cobb. Now, if you said you found a 52 Topps Mantle behind the stove I might call BS.
