Don't you just love it when your card gets jammed in that reader by a clerk to a point with no regard? (I think I need that special thrust or forcefull swipe so it can register the transactions...) Yep the new Gold Metal is contactless and with ApplePay makes it easier for moi to avoid these types of I'ma bust your card in half ;P

They are literally the same thing altough for whatever reason the contactless feels more rigid and not as easy to bend. But they feel the same weight. I don't have a scale unfortunetly. I wonder if this is due to the larger chip in the contactless?
Anyway the NON contactless is still sandwhiched, it just doesn't have the contactless chip in there.
Here are the pics:
Thanks for clarifying this, based on other posts, I was under the impression that the non contactless wasn't sandwiched.
This may have been discussed multiple times, but is AMEX Gold a Metal card now? I had PRG long time back and cancelled the card. Recently just got approved for the Gold card and was wondering if it is metal card now. Back when i used to have it, was plastic. Also do they send the card via UPS just like Platinum ?
Not as hefty as their Platinum big brothers but personal and business Gold cards are both now metal.
Not certain how they are sent.

So the hype of the rose gold has died down i think , now that it has been a few months which look do you all prefer? I have the rose gold but only because my wife made me get it. lol Now I am thinking of switching to Gold , not sure how it looks in person though?
