No that grainy finish is perfectly fine with steelies. You ask if you should pass on them. While they are certainly cool, they are not really to be considered rare with the mintage they had. If you can pick them up go for it, but don't pay and arm and a leg just because they are 43's.
The smooth and chrome looking ones you see sometimes are re-plated. An honest coin perhaps a rung down on the scale is always better then something that has been altered.
