Not by Archan Kla , is certified by him as he is the Director of the WRK committee or watever currently, for a long time liao and he only certified Somdej from WRK and he is very well respected in the Amulets industries.
As Bro Keith mentioned, and is true, the Somdej certified by him are traded in very high price in Thailand. Somdej from WRK (old amulets) are more to collection and trade to potential buyers in the future, not for amateurs wearer i think. But if you have the money, why not?
Seriously i have got 3 somdej from a friend too which are certified by Archan Kla too..for 350K Baht all 3 pcs. I think i have or my friend has shown to Bro Naemlo before the pics too. Or did i remember wrongly?
Late after i got it, i also got the 3 Somdej to see the actual person Archan Kla in Bangkok, to verify again but didnt tell him that its already been verified.
His place also organize classes to teach people how to see n verify the amulets from WRK. Verification by him are FOC
Luckily, all 3 are certified by him and said , the meat still in good condition and ask me to keep properly. One of it is the same as the pic shown, with the chinese characters in the back , this batch according to Archan Kla is for the era long ago, for the Chinese merchants who are in Thailand and made very big donation to WRK and Somdej toh make those amulets for them.
After some search, there is a youtube by a thai collector holding the same Amulet with the chinese wording. He said is worth or was offered 12 mil baht in Thailand for the mentioned amulet.
