It will be interesting to see what happens.
What I thought would largely happen is that the 100ct bag hunters would just spend the non-privymarked pieces. Unless the hunter was not rewarded with at least two privy-marked surprise tokens per bag, of course. Then the thing to do is offer them all on ebay, charging buyers as much as one can get away with.
I don't think anyone smart did that even my LCS was paying over face
Maybe not smart but patriotic. You know, being America's 250th birthday, start thinking about how much you want to spread a small part of your wealth, wealth made in America, to your fellow Americans. Spend them!
Why not sell them for two or three times face value and then spread that wealth. 🤷♂️
Not really very patriotic. I'm trying to promulgate the idea of sharing the pieces as art with folks not necessarily making a buck off them. The wealth is in the sharing experience. Think of how many folks' day would be made by getting one of these in change.

Why don't you lead by example. You can buy a few $1000 bags, dress up as Uncle Sam, and hand them out on street corners. 🇺🇸🎉

Handing out Crackerjack prizes on street corners is not for me.
Well then, buy Silver Eagles from the mint and spend them at face value.

"Art" is not always good art. The quality of the minter's art ranges all the way from superb, as is seen, in the 2007 Jamestown commemorative dollar issue, to what we see with the Semiquincentennial dollar issue of this year. One hundred of these at face value will buy a really nice Jamestown for the collector to share viewing with, with family and friends.
