Rose-colored cards are uncommon, which is precisely why the American Express® Gold Card (Terms apply. See rates & fees) stands out. Cardholders can choose between the signature gold-colored card or optionally opt in to Amex’s special rose gold card. Other than the color, both cards are otherwise exactly the same and top-notch earners when it comes to groceries and dining.
