Woman shocked by husband's $5k Pokémon card collection

SWNS

A woman was left stunned when she discovered that husband was sitting on a small fortune - thanks to his childhood Pokémon card collection.  Madeline Brice, 31, had no idea that her husband Juan Pardo, 29, had been sitting on a treasure trove of rare cards.  Juan began collecting Pokémon cards at the age of five after becoming obsessed with the Pokémon show.  Now he owns 1,500 cards and has preserved them safely in a laminated card collection book.  Juan has used an app to scan the first 670 cards, which alone are valued at around £1.5k ($2k).
