Classic Shield Years of Service Pin
The design
On the pin
A burgundy shield edged in gold tone. YOUR COMPANY runs across the top, the milestone number sits in a white medallion in a burgundy serif, and a banner at the point reads YEARS OF SERVICE.
What it means
A shield is the oldest shape in heraldry and stands for protection and loyalty. On a service pin it suggests the employee has been a steady part of the organization, which suits institutions where long careers are common.
Colors and finish
Burgundy and gold are deep, classic colors that look right with a dark suit or a uniform. Swap the field to your brand color, or give each milestone its own color so tenure can be seen at a glance.

More years of service pins with your company logo
Can our logo replace the company name?
Yes. A simple logo fits across the top of the shield; a detailed one works better in the medallion, with the number moving to the banner.
Can we color-code milestones?
Yes. Changing the field color per milestone is common and keeps one consistent design.
Can each milestone year be a different color?
Yes. Each year is a version of the same design, and enamel colors or the metal finish can change by milestone.
Can you engrave the employee name on the back?
Yes, with a laser backstamp for $0.24 per pin.
How big is a 1-inch pin?
Slightly larger than a US quarter. It is the most common lapel size for service awards. Your proof shows the pin at actual size.
