Your coins are EXACT same diameter you can mesure the diameter by putting a ruller over the coins thru. the monitor.One might look different or seem larger than the other could be due to the darker color on the coin due to environmental exposure,her Nose both look identical as well I am not aware of her ever having a Nose job done  Edited by Chase007

Don't see how there can be a difference when the same master die is used for all the striking dies.
Also the same size planchets would be used on all of the strikes.

They're both normal, regular coins. No errors.
Errers and Varietys.

same size and design elements. Maybe it is the dark toning of the right coin is giving an appearance of different sizes. |

They are not the same. One is larger than the other and the face is different I'll post a more visible comparison!

You need a third one to see if one is smaller than normal, or the other is larger than normal. Then we can speculate the cause(s). My guess? One is larger than normal and Texas Cent adjacent.  |

I do not have a third one. I will measure them and post additional pictures later today. I will also do a side by side of the face. The nose is completely different. Also the rimming.

Can you annotate the photos to point out what you are seeing? I am having a difficult time seeing what is difference between them. Other than the size which you did a really good job showing.  |

These coins are very different. The nose, rim, diameter. I'm not sure what I'm missing as some post state these are the exact same. I would like recommendations as to if it's with it to go in person for an evaluation. These were my great grandparents.

They are both between 23 mm and below 24 mm with fractional differences, it could be one has worn down more than the other one.
