Was it completely randomized distribution? Should I contact Amex and ask for another one?
I don't believe there are any without EMV.

The shocking thing is some are contact only, no contactless. Given they have a metal contactless at all. That's an engineering feat. It is impossible to make a contactless card the normal way and have it be metal, so this is impressive!
