I too heard of the "two stories same morph" thing. Two different people(one being Ralph Davis and I forgot the other...was it Kevin from NERD??) imported similar looking WC balls from Africa. The butter was labeled first, I believe. And Ralph Davis named his version the Lesser Platinum. And the two just derived from there...
I could be totally wrong, but this is the story that I've been told.

I think the Lesser is on top and the Butter on bottom.
