The physically larger battery is 58Wh (the zoomed images clearly show Wh printed on the battery). On the other hand the smaller battery is 48Ah. Note the different units.
The 48Ah is a pointless number unless we know the voltage that was measured at. If the voltage was 3.2V (standard for a LiFePo4 cell) then the smaller one almost has 2.5x the capacity of the larger one.

Gotta love the Chinese labeling
