Clothing had value. Four soldiers wanted it. Each took one piece, and they gambled for the fifth (John 19:23-24). At the end of the day, they took their booty with them. What happened to those five pieces of cloth? Were they kept and worn? Were they sold at a profit? Did their value change after the resurrection? Was anyone healed by touching them as had been true with cloth that had touched Paul? (Acts 19:11-12). I do not know the answer to these, but I do know that if you clothe yourself with the Risen Christ, you will be a healing influence in the world.
“Clothe yourself with the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ” Romans 13:14a
