So, Guilded Whispers is a pretty interesting spell that opens up a lot of potential avenues for getting scrying sensors into places it might otherwise be impossible to, but the spells it calls out (Clairaudience-Clairvoyance, Scrying) are somewhat limited options.

Arcane Eye, however, is very nearly the perfect scrying spell. It's not limited to a small field of view, and it sees exactly as you would see. Additionally, no save or spell resistance. It only has one big limitation, being you can only cast in a location you can see.

With Guilded Whispers letting you cast Divination (Scrying) spells through the coin chosen by the spell, it would seem that Arcane Eye is a valid option. But it seems like virtually nobody on the internet has asked about this interaction. Does this work?

If it does work, here are some additional questions:
- when choosing to target the coin instead of a creature or location, is the wording "You can create the arcane eye at any point you can see" the location you are choosing to target in the coin? or must you still see the coin to cast arcane eye?
- once you have casted arcane eye, is it now fixed into the coin or can you move it around as per normal?
