Actually I believe it is 60 years old for the discount.Welcome to the forum.
If you're 65 or older the license fee is reduced to $70, and some instructors offer "senior" discounts. It's liberating to have the plastic and not worry about whether you can carry a weapon near a school and all those other boogiemen. Also it's handy for other states that don't have the equivalent of our Motorist Protection Act (unlicensed car carry).
