Prudence Purple Very Small Seeds

Sorry for the misspelled title

I gave my son-in-law a variety of plants at the beginning of the season. He planted them and didn't mark them because he's not a seed saver. Every year he plants tomatoes and every year they are wiped out with BER.

This year was the same except for some beautiful beefsteaks that he says must be Pruden's Purple. I agree that the fruit looks like it must be PP.

Anyway because these did so well in his garden I want to save seeds for him. Last night I removed the seeds for fermentation and saw only very small seeds. Smaller even then any cherry variety I know.

I don't remember them being that small when I plant the seeds that I had purchased in the spring.

Anybody familiar with PP seeds? Are they very small typically?
