spoilers : contents of milk cans and mom's coat

Spoilers:
(how do I do that thing with the red "spoilers" covering the text?)

I wish the film makers had been more clear about what was in the milk cans -- if it's gold, great, but why does one of the characters say it was quarters?

I love the way we realize that Shelley is not taking the coat because she's evil and wants to steal the mom's stuff from the daughters, but rather because it makes her feel better. I love that they left it for her, and I love that she enters the house through Woofie's door.

Love eating out of Woofie's dish at the end -- good old Woofie!

The quarters are all pre-1965 coins so are 90% silver (from 1965 they've been made of copper and nickel). They also appear to be in mint condition so would fetch top price from coin buyers.

By 1964 the value of the silver in quarters was higher than the face value of the coins so some people began hoarding them. Apparently Joe bought a lot and buried them knowing when his daughters were grown the value would be much greater.
