Pakistani Rupee

This object is called “Pakistani rupees”. This object is from Pakistan. The item is used to buy stuff. The object is made out of paper. First, it was my dads then mine, but it's not that valuable.

Because it was my dads and then it was passed down to me, I look at it and it feels like I’m back in Pakistan. I feel happy because it reminds me of my culture. My dad immigrated from Pakistan to the US in 1992. He came to America to get a better life. He's been back to Pakistan before. He came to America because he wanted his children to learn English. My dad went back to Pakistan because he wanted to meet his friend and his culture he misses.The money is safe with me because it could be so rare one day.

About my object it's so cool when I feel it it feels like I’m in Pakistan. Also it's worth $3 in the US. One day it will be valuable. Maybe in 30 years it will be worth 1 million dollars.
