A nickel is smaller and thicker, and has a smooth edge compared to the quarter. Can you not tell the difference?
When you’re jiggling around in your pocket for it and there’s other coins in there too, it becomes harder to do.
I’m not saying there’s a 0% chance of figuring it out by touch alone, just that by touch identifying a coin (vs a not-coin) is a lot easier to do than by touch identifying what amount an individual coin is worth. (In the U.S. at least.)

This guy fishes in his pockets with his hands.

Well, sure. Adding many variables usually makes anything harder to do. But that generally just means it takes a little more effort.
Are your hands horribly mangled or something? Am I bringing up something hard for you to deal with?
Hands? It’s horribly hard to fit my trunk into my pockets.
