SHARP, Judge.
Smith appeals his dual convictions and sentences for sale or delivery of cocaine,1 and possession of the same cocaine.2 The crimes were committed prior to the effective date of the amendment to section 775.-21(4), Florida Statutes (Supp.1988). Therefore, both convictions cannot be upheld. State v. Burton, 555 So.2d 1210 (Fla.1989), Carawan v. State, 515 So.2d 161 (Fla.1987); Garrison v. State, 530 So.2d 365 (Fla. 5th DCA 1988).
Accordingly, the lesser crime conviction is quashed, and the conviction for sale of cocaine is affirmed. State v. Barton, 523 So.2d 152 (Fla.1988). Because Smith’s scoresheet will not be altered by this reversal, since he will remain in the “any non-state prison sanction” bracket, we also affirm his sentence of five years probation for the sale offenses.
AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part.
