WPN Pre-1st Batch Amulet "Roon Long Phim" |
|
The above top pic is the WPN test-blok or pre-1st batch amulet.
Thai collectors call such the amulet "Roon Long Phim"; Roon = batch, Long
= test, Phim = blok, mold. After LP Sod had decided to build a big Dhamma school building
for monks, he raised up fund by making Gift Amulets (Phra KongKwan) in B.E. 2493 for
people who helped donate for the project. Before the 1st batch Gift Amulets were set with the white holy powder formula,
all 10 molds had been tested with a grey composition (mixed with construction cement)
formula. Although the formula had enhanced the amulet structure strength, they really
looked unpleasant. By the suggestion of the Great Guru--LP Sod-- the grey formula was
changed to the white holy powder formula. This is, thus, the white holy powder 1st batch
Gift Amulets were created ever since in B.E.2493. |
