Effect of changing L/C on current in purely inductive/capacitive circuits

Problem

A coil is wound around a hollow tube with a certain number of turns. It is then connected to an ac source having voltage amplitude V0. It is observed that the current amplitude is I0.
What would be the effect on I0 if the coil had a smaller number of turns around the same hollow tube?
