Only if it's a bullion coin, the larger coin will weigh more
MoreThe full answer is yes, no, and maybe.In some cases a coin's size is related to its value, especially if the coin is (or was) made of a precious metal. For example, a US quarter is 2.5 times the size of a dime because many years ago the coins were made of 90% silver and had to contain their actual value in metal.
In other cases a lower-value coin may be larger if it is, or was, made of a cheaper metal. That's why nickels are larger than dimes - when the nickel was first made in 1866 dimes were of course silver, and 10¢ worth of silver weighed a lot less than 5¢ worth of copper and nickel.
Today most coins are made of so-called base metals like copper, nickel, brass, steel, etc. and don't contain anywhere near their face value's worth in metal. Size distinctions are used simply to help people distinguish one coin from another. For example, among European Coins the 1, 2, and 5 cent coins are in increasing order by size and are copper-colored. 10, 20, and 50 cent coins are bronze-colored and again in increasing size by value, but the 10 cent piece is between a 2 and 5 cent coin in size. Finally the €1 coin is in between the 20 and 50 cent piece in size.

Why is a dime so small but a nickel so big but the dime is worth more?
The reason is because the dime used to be made of silver, while the nickel has always been a copper/nickel blend. Silver is worth more, which is why the coin could be smaller, but worth more. There used to be a silver half-dime, but the coin was so small that it was replaced by the nickel.
