Has anyone else noticed a visibly increased embossing on the more recently released polymer notes?

The increased embossing on the back of the note from the Intaglio printing of the portrait is very visible when you view the back of the note held horizontal against a source of light reflecting at about a 30 degree angle. The shoulders and the hair are the most easy to see. For some reason the embossing is most prominent on 20 dollar notes notes, then 50 dollar and 100 dollar notes. It is not that prominent in 5 dollar and 10 dollar notes.


Wonder what paper money would say if it could talk?
