Got one today and I have a question about the SN. The SN on the obverse is indented and on the reverse it's raised to the touch and also visible. I have not seen this before on any notes and would like to know if it's common or collectible? Thanks,

What do you mean by its visible on the reverse? Just were its raised or did the ink bleed.through.

It's common, it's the plate embossing when the notes get printed. As these notes go through the normal wear cycle, the embossing irons out.

I checked a dozen or so at work and the majority could be felt raised on the reverse.
