My grandfather's name was Nouroz Ali Taghikhani and my mother's name was Mones Taghikhani.

It all started with my grandfather that he has given two coins that were used in World War 2 back in Iran. When my mother was young, she took them from her father and she kept them then handed them over to me and I gave them to my son. I have searched online and found out that they were used in World War 2 and found out that they are valuable. This is amazing because it doesn't matter where you come from, you are still united with people in the war.
