I'm pretty sure there isn't an exact recognized break for the more recent comic ages (bronze, copper, modern), but I'm a little confused on a few in our system.
I just picked up Uncanny X-Men 221 and Uncanny X-Men Annual 14.
.
Uncanny X-Men Annual 14 seems correct, sitting in the Copper Age (January 1990)

.
But, Uncanny X-Men 221 seems wrong, sitting in the Modern Age (September 1987)

.
From what I can tell, a large chunk of the series (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/uncanny-x-men/rlux) shows Modern Age: 217 (May 1987) -254 (Dec 1989), 256 (Dec 1989) - 261 (May 1990)
If 1991 is the start of the Modern Age, then 272 (Jan 1991) - 283 (Dec 1991) are incorrect (they all show Copper Age),
However, if we consider 1992 to be the start of the Modern Age, then that last section are correct.
.
Like I said, just a little confused.
