HH Gold VIP card
I haven't been staying at Hilton properties for years, my q might be odd:
I just found an old "HH Gold VIP" card of mine. It is from year 2005 and it has exp date 2099. I don't know why the exp date is 2099, but I remember I got the card long ago as a cooperative gift being a high status elite in another program (don't remember which).
The question is if I could utilize the "old" card to get Gold bennies? The card has still the same membership number as my current account even if I have used my account veeery rarely and thus I am lowly no-level status. I am thinking of whether simply showing the card at check-in would work despite having no real status.

My question was only about if the y/2099-valid card is any use (I am not expecting that, but who knows).
I wonder if anyone else with similar experience? Sounds like a lifetime card
I am not betting on it

My status is plain BLUE. Somehow I have been able to keep it live (I don't know if they close accounts if not used). I even have some 4k points on it.
