Sharing a piece of somdej bangkhumprom 2509.
I have shared many pieces of bkp 09. Pim B, pim C, pim orkrut, pim chedi meehoo, janloy.
What i shared now is pim ket bua tom. What make it so special is its contents. It is loaded with fragments of old bkp powder. Can visibly seen with naked eyes. More than any pim i have.
Nowaday, a 1cm2 broken pieces of bkp somdej cost anything from 46k -60k thb depending on condition. So, this piece is really good n nice for collection.
This piece won a 2nd placing in nakhom pathom police cadet competition last week.
Enjoy!
Some friends n collector who are into wat paknum amulets but worried about wat pak num roon 1 n 3 prices
Some good news for you...
Wat paknum phra kong kwan made by lp sodh is among the most sacred n holiest phra you can get. When he was alive, Lp sodh had repeatedly said that he invited all deva to come to chant and made the phra together. And that one will achieve great success n enjoy great life if he meditates with this and observe the 5 buddhist precept.
And historical event shows that thousands of followers achieve great life indeed avoiding accidents n attracting prosperity.
But roon 1 price range > 150k thb easily for a bad condition piece n that even an average roon 3 costs >60k thb.
So, how to collect.??
I would like to share this piece then. Phra wat koh chan. 2495. Pim yai.This was made by lp inn (direct disciple of lp sodh) with roon 1/2 materials. It was made few year before roon 3 wpn with lp sodh chanting. It is as holy n as sacred as roon 1 wpn but at fraction of cost. Lp inn helps lp sodh made roon 1 phra kong kwang too back then.
Whats more every piece with hand jarn by lp inn. Unique n limited in qty.
Alsp lp sodh has made the phra with thamakay technique same as how he made roon 1. This technique summon spirits to protect the wearer. Thus, no question that this phra is as effective as roon 1.
Why this is worth to collect?
1. Same materials as roon 1 wpn. Can use as studying of wpn material.
2. Same holiness n sacred. Best for self wearing.
3. At fraction of wpn roon 1 cost.
Enjoy friends!

Roon sorng lp tae khun phen wat sam ngan. Very popular after roon raek such a big hit establishing lp tae big name as ghost king.
For 2nd batch, mix with old powder of first batch n special soil collected from 7 graveyard that possess super energy. L.p. tae khunphen is top 5 in Thailand ranking side by side as kp bangkrang n lp tim kppk.
This piece few years back someone told me temple still available. Actually those are remake batch. Not made in 2503. N not chant by lp tae of course.
If u notice, yant behind got very many fine lines. These are some marking one has to take note when renting.
This piece is in superb condition featured in lp tae book.

So tied up with works n didnt have time to blog. :)
Today i want to share an excellent piece of somdej pilant pim krop keaw yai (glass shield).
This was made by somdej pilant n is one of the highly saught after pim made in early era. Rare n hard to find a real piece at such good condition. Almost can guarantee winning at least 3rd or 4th in every competition.
Many of u know that somdej pilant was direct disciple of somdej puttarjarn toh. He was also the abbot of wat rakhang after somdej toh. Later batches of somdej wat rakhang by somdej Toh were also co-chanted by pilant. So. No argument to say that wearing a somdej pilant is the same as wearing a somdej wrk.
The material is of bailan (burn scripture) n mix with 5 powders from somdej toh. This is easy to verify with aging signs n unique material formation of somdej pilant material. This adds a lot of value to this somdej. Other than pim sum prathu n pathom tesana, this the third most expensive. Haha!
1st placing in TOT competition last month n 2nd in today's competition (12 Oct) at Pantip organized by Samakorm.
Enjoy!
Sharing another piece of LP Doo, Wat Saket popular phra phrom.
LP Doo is from the lineage of AC Heng and LP Si that made the most expensive phra phrom in Thailand. The ngern metal stamp cost 100,000 thai baht. This phra phrom made by lp doo, in 2522 is of great condition. With jarn written by lp doo clearly seen on surface of the back of amulet. Not all metal phra phrom have "mee" code on the side. without code it costs only 17000 baht. but this one has code. No code one are not made by lp Doo. But other temple pass to him for giving to devotees. This piece the code is deep n clear.
For nur pasom, the more yellow it is, means more brass and thus it will be more expensive. if more red, means more copper. thus price lower. if copper only, price only 25000 baht.Total phra phrom metal made 10,000 pieces. there are copper, mix (nur pasom) and brass. Copper cheaper and brass most expensive.
Enjoy!
Won 4 pieces out of 17. Out of 17, 9 are my own. The rest are friend's one.
1. Kring narai 2542 by ajarn nong wat saikao - champion
2. Pidta salapaddee by lp kassem -2nd
3. Lp thuat pert loke phong kamakan by lp doo- 3rd
4. Somdej pu - 4th
Huge crowd n one that is hard to forget as i submitted more than 10 n only 4 get placing.really difficult to win. Too many submission. Many of my friends tumpang me to compete but none get any placing. Hai...
Lesson learnt. If want cert, pick smaller scale samakom competition. If have super good condition or rare phra, then go for such big one. If not wasted all your money.
Very nice piece of somdej bangkhum prom 2502 by lp lampoo, in very good condition n visibly see fragments of old bkp powder.
With red jarn behind. Added to the value of this somdej.
My 4th piece of lampoo, haha!
My favourite amulet from my favourite luangpu.
Seldom seen such a nice piece. Somdej made of candle wax of chanting ceremony, sacred lp doo powder etc. Early batch Made about 2510.
Great looking!
All saraburi certs came in few days ago. 7 of them. Haha
My next trip probably 27 July at tharmasat university or 3rd Aug at nakon pathom.
Time flies. I remember dad brought us to temple of wat rakhang many years ago n collected some amulets n I was just like few years old. Years later dad told me he rented some 108 n 118 from temple directly when it was launched n he also bought from dealer too. So, he got few pieces of Roy pee and 108 n 118..
Many years have passed n now these somdej are highly sought after. Especially Roy pee as it mixed with high content of old somdej toh powder n chanted by master monks of that era.
But, how many more left unnoticed in drawer or cupboard. After 1 generation, it is luck that I manage to find them. Next generation comes, I believe my son's will just think these are figurine of no value. Hai!
Showing here is 108 anniversary Pim A. The most expensive Pim of 108. Excellent top condition.
Sharing 4 pieces of my way rakhang somdej Roy pee (100 years anniversary of somdej buddhachantoh) made in 2515. Mixed with high amount of old wat rakhang powder.
I have shared many Roy pee in my blog, but what I have not shared are the masterpiece of my collection.
Pim khaipla. For Roy pee, there are 17 pims n price range from 10000 thb to 60000 thb depending on Pim. Pim khaipla is one of the principle mold Whete many ppl like cause it is all hand made n not many fake in market. As usual these pieces shared are standard materials n pim. This is what I like.
Also, what makes this so unique is that they are all featured in the Roypee bible (hard cover), page 146 n 147. It has been used as standard Pim to demonstrate to ppl how Pim khaipla yai looks like n the markings available.
Rare in market to find Pim khaipla yai at this condition.
Ajarn nong silver takrut narai phang rope. 2514.
This one is very hard to find. Especially the silver one. N old batch Now is rarely seen in the Market.
I have written about the story of ajarn nong n why this takrut is so unique. So, I won't repeat it here again.
Will send it for competition soon. Haha
