I am thinking about collecting a date run of silver three cent pieces.. but I am told that they are small coins.By the pictures in the ads they dont look small but what do I know.So are they the size of a dime?? bigger?? smaller??

Don't buy raw as you will probably lose it

As others have said... they are quite small indeed!

I don't know how big your hand is by comparison, but a 3cS is about the size of one of my fingernails.
3C silvers are wonderful coins to collect. They are in general low mintage yet affordable but a few of the type 3 MS and type 2 proofs can be challenging.
Lots of patterns too.
