I believe you get 1 credit per quarter worked (so your husband has 160 credits if he contributed SS for each quarter of the 40 years).
To collect "full benefit", I believe you need 40 credits. I am 34 yo... this does not mean I can collect now, but if I become disabled, I have enough credits for my full benefit...
