My husband had two for a while.

He had a "main" one, and one that was only used for travel to Saudi Arabia. KSA is picky about what they see in your passport. For example, my husband had been to Israel. He could never enter KSA with that, so the state department issued one just to go to KSA. This is actually pretty common, as I understand it.
