"Everything" is probably too terse of an answer, but some days it seems accurate.

My trading card collecting centers around my Ted Musgrave collection, which also includes die-cast vehicles and other merchandise and memorabilia related to his racing career.

I also have collections of Hot Wheels and Mattel Pixar Cars die casts.  My Hot Wheels collection is focused on a handful of specific castings, only a few of which still see regular production.  That collection is mature, that is to say I have almost all of the existing pieces for it and I'm mostly just keeping up with new releases.  My Pixar Cars collection is not very active anymore either.  New releases are few and far between, and the COVID shutdown broke my habit of regularly going out hunting for them.

The thing I've been collecting the longest, and a collection that I want to get back to actively adding to, is my coin collection.  The bulk of my collection is US circulating coinage, but I also collect; proof and mint sets, some paper money, Canada and World coins & currency.  My collection extends into the world of 'exonumia' as well with my token collection.  For tokens, I focus on Transit and Amusement tokens but my collection includes all sorts; Parking, Car Wash, Phone, Laundry, Bathroom, Vending, Tax, Good For, etc.

Another thing I've started collecting is family history.  I got bitten by the geneology bug a few years ago.  I don't have as much time as I'd like to spend on it, but I'm planning to get more active with this hobby soon.
