The issuance of a separate account number would seem to be the determinative factor in reporting when that account was opened.

Even if the embossed card numbers are the same, the issuer can tell them apart, and could report a different account opening date if they chose.
I’m looking at our Cap1 Venture X cards and all have different numbers: 1 primary, 3 AUs.

I’m going to upgrade the AU gold Amex cards to AU plats in a few months. I hope the numbers remain the same.
