2008 Bald Eagle- 6 coins
2003 First Flight- 6 coins
2001 Capitol Visitor Center- 6 coins
1996 Olympics- way too many
1995 Civil War Battlefields- 6 coins
1994 World Cup Tournament- 6 coins
1993 WWII- 6 coins
1993 Bill of Rights- 6 coins
1992 Christopher Columbus- 6 coins
1992 Olympics- 6 coins
1991 Mount Rushmore- 6 coins
1989 Congress Bicentennial- 6 coins
1986 Statue of Liberty- 6 coin
1984 Olympics- 6 coins
As you can see there is a trend here. When the commem program restarted in the 80s, six coin sets were only issued occasionally. They really ramped up in the 90s, culminating with the excessive coinage of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics and that turned many people off from the commem programs. The big programs were cut back and the Bald Eagle set is only the third six coin set since 1996.
