Any coin produced by any government established mint, both circulating legal tender and NCLT.
Would the biggest be the recently minted Canadian gold coin that has been pictured on the forums and that costs into the seven figures?

The Austrian government recently made a huge coin as well but not that large.
The smallest is probably the Panamanian "pill". This is a .900 fine .0362 ASW
2 1/2c coin from 1904. There are some ancient coins that might be contenders
and the "widows mites" were quite tiny.
Panama reprised the pill in cu/ ni starting in 1975 but, I believe, these are a lit-
tyle larger. (thicker)
<< <i>Yes, unless you count "Yap stone money" which isn't true coinage or money.
