We have the same experience about that thing. it looks the same even the procedure of cutting it in half and then that green stone inside. the only difference is the marking because ours marked USSR.

what are the specific markings of the balls? what we have in our possession is SAIYAYSA USSR control no. 2 and in black color of ball measuring like 4 to 6 inches diameter and weighing 5.7 kilos. i dont think they will enclose it a special casing if there is no value in it. post the photo so i can post my photo, too

This is a scam we have pointed out this fact a number of time on this forum.
Think about this, Why would you encase a stone that is 1x1 in weighting 1 oz in a ball 6 in around weighting 6 kilos?? I am not saying you are anyone here is a conman but think maybe you have been caught up in someones scam.
This scam was started here by gboy or one of the early scammers and we can't seem to kill it but if you google   SAIYAYSA USSR  all links lead back to here. Sorry wonder woman but what you have is not real, set it on the table grub your shovel and go find some real treasure.

I checked with everyone in Australia and nobody made them here. Does it have the "Made In Australia" label on it?

WW, I was poking fun at you. Those things are not filled with anything except broken promises. They are not treasure and they were not made to hide diamonds or anything else of value. There's a certain illogical notion to it all. Why make something as big as a bowling ball to hide something the size of a quail egg?

Those Saiyaysa balls were all made by your countrymen to scam each other. Unfortunately, if you paid anything for yours, you were scammed.

all sayaysa balls are made in mindanao. mindanao sayaysa balls can scammed people in mindanao, it was carefully made and marked it has a counterclockwise 3 turn lock to open.and it has a diamond inside (fake diamonds) not green. green cut glass and black stone is for visayas and luzon. same for the gold bars it is carefully made and hard plate no names just stamped serial numbers and cherry blossom flower logo and it is for mindanao operation.

also the welsfargo,mark 1000 mark with eagle,frb boxes were made in mindanao.even the counterfeit money today.
