Sure, I think sol A sheet of metal (low emissivity) formed into a cavity acts like a cavity radiator (high emissivity). To the extend that the rough side has crevasses/pocks/indents and the shiny side does not, the rough side will be more like a cavity radiator and hence a higher emissivity. Lots of sources say surface texture matters for emissivity.
