M. sikkimensis seeds are rather large for Musa, so if thats what you are comparing them to then they are still large compared to many other Musa. The biggest seeds I have seen were a particular E. ventricosum, but I have also seen smaller ones that are more like other Ensete seeds. See this link for a file with some comparisons.
