The article features dharma teachings from respected monks and detailed descriptions of four amulet coins. Luang Pho Phrom's bathing coin from Wat Chong Khae was created in 2012 during the 101st herbal medicine ceremony, featuring an oval shape with the monk in full meditation posture and a bell mark. Luang Poo Huat's coin, made only in 1992, has a limited run of under 3,000 pieces in darkened copper.
