Canadian Government of Canada Long and Loyal Service Medal Dated 1982 Named In Case

The Canadian Government of Canada Long and Loyal Service Medal is an official recognition awarded to individuals for extended and faithful service to the federal government. This particular example is dated 1982 and comes named, indicating it was issued to a specific recipient, which adds to its historical documentation. The medal is presented in its original case, providing protection and supporting authenticity. The design typically features the Canadian Coat of Arms on the obverse and a bilingual inscription acknowledging long and loyal service on the reverse, with the recipient’s name appropriately engraved. Awarded during the late 20th century, such medals were part of a broader effort to honour public sector employees demonstrating exceptional dedication over many years.

The inclusion of both the case and named detail enhances its significance as a historical artifact.
