Man sells son’s forgotten Pokemon cards for $2M after keeping them in attic for 15 years

A retired decorator in the UK has become a millionaire after selling a collection of Pokemon cards for nearly $2.1 million, having kept them in his attic for 15 years. The man, who lives in Woking, Surrey, had purchased the cards in the late 1990s after his son became interested in the Pokemon trading card game. However, he had no idea how valuable the collection had become until reading about another Pokemon card selling for more than $8,000 in his local newspaper.
