Medallion for promotion of the ecclesiastical rank (code 416)

with Samakorn Certificate

Collector Lens

This Sema-shaped medallion (เหรียญเสมา) sits in a very particular category: not an “ordinary release,” but a formal commemorative struck to mark Luang Phor Ruay’s ecclesiastical promotion (เลื่อนสมณศักดิ์). In Thai Buddhist culture, such promotions are not cosmetic — they recognise decades of service, discipline, and leadership within the Sangha. For collectors, the “Roon Lueng Samanasak” naming is therefore a provenance signal: it ties the piece to a specific milestone, a specific temple setting (Wat Tako), and a clear devotional intention.

History of Rian Sema Luang Phor Ruay — Roon Lueng Samanasak (BE2559)

The Rian Sema Luang Phor Ruay, widely referred to as Roon Lueng Samanasak, was created in BE2559 (2016) to commemorate Luang Phor Ruay’s promotion in ecclesiastical rank. In practical terms, this release functions as both a milestone marker and a merit vehicle: it honours the monk’s standing in the Sangha while supporting Wat Tako’s ongoing temple development and charitable works.

Occasion of Creation

This medallion was issued at Wat Tako (Ayutthaya Province) to formally celebrate the promotion event. Collectors value such “occasion-tied” releases because they are anchored to a dated recognition and are typically supported by consistent naming, temple context, and edition markers — in this case, the listing highlights Code 416.

Design Details (Front / Back) — What the Sema Form Signals

The Sema outline echoes the traditional boundary stones (ใบเสมา) used to define consecrated Buddhist space. Symbolically, it frames the wearer inside “protected ground” — a reason Sema medallions are often associated with safety, steadiness, and moral boundaries.

1. Front Design:
   • High-relief portrait of Luang Phor Ruay in monastic robes, with a calm, dignified expression.
   • Perimeter inscription commemorating the promotion milestone (as noted in the provided description).
2. Back Design:
   • Sacred Yant inscriptions to enhance protective and auspicious intent.
   • Edition verification emphasis via the stated Code “416”.

Sacred Blessing Ceremony

The provided notes state this medallion underwent consecration at Wat Tako, presided over by Luang Phor Ruay together with other monks. In collector language, this means the piece is not only a commemorative strike; it is also a ritual object — “activated” through chanting (สวด), meditation (ภาวนา), and formal blessing procedures aligned with temple tradition.

Traditional Spiritual Attributes & Metaphysical Properties

In Thai amulet culture, Luang Phor Ruay’s medallions are commonly carried with intentions around warmth in human relations, protective luck, and livelihood stability. This aligns with the classic triad that devotees often attribute to his line:

• Metta Maha Niyom (เมตตามหานิยม): social ease, kindness, and “people support.”
• Klaew Klaad (แคล้วคลาด): protective intention — avoiding danger and misfortune.
• Wealth / Prosperity: steady gains, business flow, and opportunities that arrive through right action.

These are traditional belief framings, not promises. Experienced collectors treat them as “devotional intention tags” — useful for understanding why certain releases remain popular.

Rarity & Collectibility

The “Roon Lueng Samanasak” theme gives this piece strong context value: it commemorates a specific honour within the Sangha. Collectibility is further reinforced by the presence of a Samakorn certificate (as stated) and the clear edition marker reference (Code 416). In the market, coded and certificate-supported pieces are typically easier to match, document, and trade with confidence — especially for collectors who prefer provenance clarity over pure hype.
