    The operative word being anniversary. Not the 20th year. For example, one year after you are married is your first anniversary - not your 2nd. I think what the mint is doing is pretty standard.

    I understand the point, and I'm not quibbling as I could care less what they call it. But it would be nice to at least see some consistency. The mint released the 10th anniversary set in 1995 - and the 20th anniversary in 2006 ??

    I'm confused :rolleyes:

    If that's really true, someone at the Mint would say they've done their job! :p

    At least they didn't do a 20th year set last year AND a 20th anniversary set.

    And there's the difference. 20th year is different than a 20th anniversary..

    Car insurance does it on your car. My 1996 Ford pickup (still getting 20+ mpg!) is considered by my insurer to be 11 years old.

    To be fair, cars are slightly different though. You could buy a 2007 model today. It's like time travel.
