I know what you mean about the look of them. They look like chocolate coins. I like that though, and I don't mind handing them out as they're not gaffed.
But the silver really is more grippy on the face of the coins. the nickel is harder so more slippy. I can get more grip when moving the coin around from different palms.
Also I thought that if I'm digging coins into my hands all day, then I might as well use silver rather than nickel. So I replaced all my kennedys for 1964 silver ones (uncirculated as well. sorry
)
We all got to work with what makes us feel right...No doubt.
