AMEX PRG Mini-Facelift

Anonymous · ‎06-02-2015

I just replaced my PRG and Green card because of the new silver printing color. I am such a sucker for aesthetics. They also refreshed the 'American Express' shading on the PRG. There is now a deeper shadowing to the 'American Express' on the front of the card in addition to the silver ink on the imprints. The card is also much ligher in color. It looks a lot better in my opinion. The changes are subtle, but the card looks much brighter and bolder. The Green card also has the new silver imprinting ink.

Here's mine that I got about a week ago.

It looks brighter in real life, with a nice mettalic finish.

I am not fond of the silver lettering. I think that the black lettering was nicer. Unfortunately we have no choice in what card is sent. Better make my card last a long time.

YES!!! That is the new refresh of the PRG. Also, the EMV chip on the PRG like this one has a more silver-ish sheen to it. I'm not exactly sure why, but it looks NICE!!! The shadowing is much deeper like I mentioned earlier as well on the 'American Express'.

The EMV chip on this is completetly different from my Delta Gold that I also just got. As you said, it's more silver-ish, but it also has a noticeable space between the elements of the chip. This allows you to see the inside of the chip. It's pretty weird.

Yes it does have different spacing on it. It looks a little odd, but I definitely like it better than the one on my EveryDay and Green cards.

Does it have a matte finish to it? That's what it looks like in the picture you posted. Or is that just my imagination?

No, it's quite shiny
