Both anions are characterized by X-ray crystallography and mass spectrometry, complemented by quantum-chemical calculations that highlight the relationships to known Zintl clusters, including the stannaspherenes and plumbaspherenes [M@Sn<sub>12</sub>]<sup><em>q</em>&minus;</sup>&nbsp;and [M@Pb<sub>12</sub>]<sup><em>q</em>&minus;</sup>, the Matryoshka bronze [Sn@Cu<sub>12</sub>@Sn<sub>20</sub>]<sup>12&ndash;</sup>, and also [Pd<sub>2</sub>@E&prime;<sub>18</sub>]<sup>4&ndash;</sup>&nbsp;(E&prime; = Ge, Sn).</p>
