What Somdej Phra Phutdhacharn(Toh) had consecrated in Wat Bang KhunProm was not distributed to the public. They were all contained into the Chedi. But in B.E. 2499, the Chedi was found cracked due to natural attrition over the long years. In B.E. 2509 a major celebration to build a large statue of Buddha and Pra Somdej Puttajahn (Toh Promarangsee), there was also a batch of Somdej amulets of mixed powder being chanted.
Mainly, this batch of Somdej amulets was chanted for the purpose of replacing the broken old Somdej amulets from the old chedi of Wat Bang KhunProm. (The old chedi was opened in BE2500 and all the Somdej amulets that were placed there by Pra Somdej Puttajahn Toh, a hundred of years ago were removed from the Chedi to prevent further damage to the Chedi and theft on the old Somdej amulets) Half of the newly chanted Somdej amulets would be placed inside the repaired Chedi and the other half would be distributed to the public. As such, this batch of Somdej amulets is also called Pra Somdej 09, meaning Somdej amulets chanted in BE2509.
