Hello, Found this neat 25 year military service pin today :icon_thumleft: Not marked for silver, but is marked on the back, L I G I. Read as a nickel on the Ace 250 :icon_sunny: Thanks for looking! Paul :coffee2:

nice Service pin :icon_thumleft:
 
Awesome military service pin, I found a hat badge medal several months ago with the same emblem, keep at it, there will be more, Ken.
 
Now that's something you don't find everyday...............good job..
 
Cool find :icon_salut: Although it is not a "Miltary" service pin. It is though U.S. Government. That is a service pin awarded to civilian Federal empoyees. They use to start with 5 year pins which they have stopped and now you only get a certificate. They are awarded for every 5 years of Government service (eg 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 ect).

Pretty neat

Thanks for clearing that up. Do you know if they are just a base metal or if they were made of better quality metals like Silver for the higher years of service.
