Default "Seabiscuit" and the silver dollars

I went to see the movie "Seabiscuit" today. Of course, part of the movie
takes place during the Great Depression. The early part traces the lifes of
the owner, the trainer and the jockey. After the stock market crash, the
jockey's family are living in a "Hooverville" and at one point, the
youngster comes up to his father and says that he made two dollars working
that day and handed his father two coins that looked like Peace dollars.

It was a very good movie, well worth the cost. Not a boring scene during
the whole 2 1/4 hours or so.
