What is the Luang Pho Chaem Buddha Above Brahma first-batch coin (Rian Phra Nuea Phrom Luang Pho Chaem, Run Raek)?
Phra Phrom (พระพรหม), the four-faced Brahma, is believed in Thailand to watch over a different part of life with each face: work, love, wealth and safety. That is why he is revered as a deity who answers prayers. "พระเหนือพรหม" means "the Buddha above Brahma": a Buddha emblem sits above the figure of Brahma, showing the Dhamma presiding over Brahma's power.
This coin was issued in B.E. 2528 by Luang Pho Chaem (หลวงพ่อแช่ม) of Wat Don Yai Hom (วัดดอนยายหอม), Nakhon Pathom. The certificate states "รุ่นแรก", the first batch.

Who is Luang Pho Chaem?
Luang Pho Chaem is a monk of Wat Don Yai Hom in Nakhon Pathom. According to the supplier, he was a direct disciple of the temple's earlier master Luang Pho Ngern (หลวงพ่อเงิน วัดดอนยายหอม) and inherited his lineage, and the amulets he blessed are known in Thailand for protection from danger, avoiding misfortune and attracting wealth. Note that this Luang Pho Ngern of Wat Don Yai Hom is a different monk from the earlier Luang Pho Ngern of Wat Bang Khlan, Phichit.
