21. Nope. I didn't get a new card.

In fact, I still have my original SS card from 1964, which states clearly it is NOT to be used for identification.

Maybe for some reason you got a new card, but I have never gotten a new one. Well, okay, about twenty years ago I could not find my original, so I requested a replacement card, but that was my request. I feel quite certain they have never just sent out new cards.
