It is a Soon Teck. From my uncle's 23 years experience of seeing alot of buddha amulets. From the photo , it might be a fake. First thing is that this monk who made this amulet , is for the king rama no.5 . Thailand year 2411. Which is Singapore year 1868. Now Thailand year is 2552. Which is Singapore 2009. Your buddha will be 141 years old now .
From the back wordings , my uncle read them already. Do you know , old amulets rarely have wordings written on the back of the amulet. May i know how much did u buy it for ?
*Add-on*
And if the amulet were really that old , the wordings should not be so clear to be able to read .

Really hope is that my uncle is see wrongly ... Don't get angry because of my uncle. Because , he is really very experienced at looking at buddha amulets.

Thanks for the info. Got the amulet from a widow whose late husband has been keeping it for a long time.

Hi to everybody.  I've never had an amulet before, so would like to have some advice.  I see in www.lelong.com.my there are some amulets for sale by a seller called yannichong.  Can I know if these are considered genuine articles?  Thank you for any kind advice on this.

It is hard to distinguish whether it is genuine if you are getting it from the Internet. Best is still direct from the temple or recommended shops.

There are plenty of old amulets that are blessed by Somdej Toh of WRK fame. It just that some dealer purposely say it is fake to protect the value of the old WRK batch.

The best verification is by holding it and feel the power. Of course, not many people can have such ability. Another way is to break it into half and see the interior. Of course, hardly anyone does this method

Most expensive amulet are very old. Since most fake will want to replicate the original, they use poor material and coat the outer layer and make it like aged amulet.

Hmm, feeling the power by holding is good for barang/phi (ghost) but regular amulet, i am not sure as advise by a high monk. I opine no such need to break the amulet in half for testing sciencetifically.. Juz drill a small dental hole to get a sample of the material will be good enough for carbon testing of the age..it's too devastating/unnecesary to break such a valuable amulet for testing (if genuine). No owner would be willing to take such risk/devastation..

Amulet that has been bless will have power. Those that are mass chanting power are stronger. Fake one will have none. I agree that it is not necessary to break or drill for samples just to verify.

As for young abbot, I do not have how they are qualified at such young age. Recently, I read that there is one 30++ years old abbot in Thailand have been disrobed and sent to jail for directing his assistant to kill his ex gf's lover.

I am more concerned on how they appoint an abbot rather than choosing one that has been 'enlighten'. The news below is one abbot aged 24


Monk, novice defrocked, charged with murder
By THE NATION ON SUNDAY
CHIANG MAI

CHIANG MAI: -- Khruba Noi Arnawelo, an abbot at Payak Donkaew Temple, and a novice, Phra Amphon Aumkul, were charged yesterday over the murder of a 17-year-old vocational schoolboy - a slaying alleged sparked by jealous rage.

Following the shooting of Amornpan Chamnikrai, 17, at the temple entrance on Wednesday, the victim's girlfriend, identified as "Kwang" (not her real name), 19, told Doi Sa Ket police Amornpan came to pick her up after work. While they were passing the temple, a white Toyota car that had tailed them sped up and parked at the temple entrance. The assailants got out of the car and shot Amornpan.

Kwang admitted she dated Khruba Noi, now 24, but kept a distance after he became a monk. She said she had started seeing Amornpan two weeks prior to the shooting but the boy had been threatened by the monk to end the relationship with "Kwang".

Police investigators initially found that Khruba Noi called another girlfriend to pick them up and ordered Phra Amphon to shoot the victim.

Both Khruba Noi and Phra Amphon have been defrocked, although they deny any wrong-doing.

The monk was well-known due to his reputation as a fortune teller, and as a follower of the late Khruba Sriwichai, as well as meditating for seven days in a cave while not eating.

I think this shop just wanna promote their signboard by having a minister to come. In a way, they succeed since free publicity in the newspaper.

Buy from trusted seller or get them direct from temple. If you got the virtue, then you will meet collectors who can test the power of the amulets and can get advice from them.
