Sanamahi Tradition
Sanamahi Kiyong Coin
Sanamahi Kiyong at the Nongmaijing hills connects a named sacred place with the wish to carry Meitei religious and cultural knowledge forward. Its story includes devotion to Lainingthou Sanamahi, community support and modern efforts to create a place of learning. These strands deserve to be understood in their own terms.

Tell us about the coin you would like, your preferred metal and the occasion. We will discuss the design, availability and next steps with you.
Made to order · Minimum 20 pieces

Made to order: minimum 20 pieces of the same design and weight.
After your enquiry, we review the artwork and presentation with you, then send an itemised quote. The final price, taxes and delivery are confirmed in that quote. No payment is taken with an enquiry.
Let the local connection guide the design
Share why Sanamahi Kiyong matters to the recipient and whether the building, its name or a specifically reviewed sacred subject is intended.
Use checked wording and a known reference
Provide an accurate image and any Meitei Mayek inscription separately. Have the final arrangement checked by a competent reader and someone familiar with the intended religious context.
From a story to a keepsake
Start with the person receiving the gift and the story you want it to hold. A family reference, the exact name of a place or a short account of the occasion gives the enquiry a useful beginning. Include any preferred wording and say which details are essential. The finished artwork and presentation are agreed with you before production.
All curated orders are made to order, with a minimum of 20 pieces per design and weight. Coin preferences are 10g, 15g, 20g, 25g, 50g, 100g. Weight describes the metal quantity; dimensions, relief and finish are separate parts of the specification. An enquiry helps establish feasibility and does not reserve stock or confirm a delivery date.
The presentation can hold the words that do not fit on the object: who gave it, why the motif was chosen and which moment it remembers. We discuss the kit or box as part of the quote, with its price and tax shown separately from the coin. Custom artwork and other additional work is confirmed before you decide to proceed.
Check names, scripts and the proposed depiction with the people who know the intended context. A commercial commission does not establish a temple, religious body, artist or other institution’s approval. Where a different format would suit the recipient better, the enquiry can explore that too.
