I'm getting ready to order my first Coral which is an a can just curious how big a two head acan would be.

So does anybody mind telling me how big their acan heads are?
 
Depends on the acan, really. I have some as small as a dime, and some as large as a quarter. I'm sure I have seen ones the size of a loonie...
 
As the others have said but I did get this one 4 head where the polyps are more than an inch across. Single head is larger than complete multi head pieces I have

Also if they are happy they grow new heads quickly

I bought a 3 head frag of Acans with polyps a little bit bigger than 1 inch across fully inflated. With regular feeding and stable parameters they will start to grown new heads fast. My acan frag started with 3 polyps in December and now has 7-8 new polyps growing all around the frag.
