And what is showcased today, is beyond conventional rarity due to the amazing condition it is preserved in.

It is perhaps the single most immaculately kept specimen we have ever encountered.

One must understand that this particular medallion was made more than 70 years ago using primitive methods.

This particular piece featured the MOST SOUGHT AFTER COMBINATION:

“Long Ya Sie Keow Pim Har Chut” – Green Enamel ; 5 Point Variant

Blessed in a grand ceremony in Year 2498 B.E. (1955 A.D.), it was overseen by Phra Ratchakhemakon (Chao Khun Kor), the abbot of Wat Sothorn, and was accompanied by a grand mass-consecration ceremony attended by numerous respected Buddhist masters of that era.

The issue was created as part of the temple’s fundraising efforts towards the construction of its ordination hall.

The single most notable fact about this featured medallion would have to be its PRISTINE CONDITION..

One must understand that this particular medallion was made more than 70 years ago using primitive methods.

Experienced collectors understand that CONDITION AND ORIGINALITY ARE OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE, particularly when dealing with antique enamel medallions.

Unlike ordinary metal surfaces, enamel is vulnerable to chipping, cracking and deterioration through prolonged handling or accidental impact.

Once the original enamel has been damaged, restoring it without compromising the collectible’s originality is known to be impossible to attain.

This is precisely why original and beautifully preserved examples are so rare and highly appreciated.

Many collectors, even some veterans with limited knowledge, may know be aware but this entire batch of amulets are made with SILVER with an ORIGINAL GOLD PLATING..

The mass majority of pieces circulating the market are devoid of it’s ORIGINAL GOLD PLATING.. Showing only the silver surface on the facade of the medallion.. To find a singular piece with the ORIGINAL GOLD PLATING and ORGINAL GREEN ENAMEL, alongside every feature of Luang Por Sothorn still clearly visible, distinctive and perfectly aged across time with a natural patina is out utmost difficulty..

An amazing proposition for any connoisseur to have this piece as part of their collection..

INCLUSIVE OF A CUSTOM MADE VINTAGE SOLID GOLD FRAMING!
