This phim is well known among Bangsek amulet collectors though not included in some popular reference books of Tok Raja’s collections. It is made from a combinations of metals we call Megaphat. This phim is only accepted is that of Pothan Kron if collected in Kelantan. At about the same period, Ven. LP Ee Wat Sattahip also consrecated such amulets and some has similar images.
In our opinion because in that era of World War II (2484-2485), many people often search for khreungrang khongklang (barang eg Phra Ngang), takruts, phayants or phra khreung (amulets) for protection and safety. Those days lay people just buy in the market to offer to their favorite Gaejik Archan to request Tahn LP to ploksek to wear for safety. While some people whom wants to make merits will offer those amulets they bought in bulk to Tahn LP to consecrate and then give to villagers whom comes to offer their respecct or tamboon with the LP. As for how Pothan Kron has similar images, it is very possible luksits from Bangkok buy and offer to Pothan Kron to ploksek and give away too. We in SaengThai, didn’t just hear say about this phim. Our relatives received them from Pothan’s hand himself verified this finding.
