We study superconducting and non-superconducting nanorings and look for non-classical features of magnetic flux passing through nanorings. We show that the magnetic flux can exhibit purely quantum properties in some peculiar states with quadrature squeezing. We identify a subset of Gazeau-Klauder states in which the magnetic flux can be squeezed and, within tailored parameter regimes, quantum fluctuations of the magnetic flux can be maximally reduced.
