Are these the same strings?

[madjazzbass]

Hey Guys, I was wondering if you guys could tell me if these 2 sets are the same strings just with different packaging? - (They both say DBN45105) or are they two totally different sets of strings one being nickel and the other nickel plated? Thanks Guys/Girls.

Same strings, different packaging, both being nickel-plated steel on a hex core.

Looking at the Dunlop website, it appears the one on the left is the current design. So, if anyone's still selling the ones with the packaging on the right, the chances are they're an older stock. At least that would be my guess.

Correct, the one on the right is older. However those will be packaged in a sealed bag with a silica gel inside which they no longer do, so they will still be good to go.
