Style 3-F1CMB at a glance

Fine starburst rays spread out from the seal on this eagle top shield, drawing the eye to the center before the lettering. Four text panels frame the seal — a straight ribbon under the eagle, an arched ribbon above the seal, a long ribbon below it and a rectangular plate at the base that holds a number or rank stars. The smooth gold field around the rays keeps the face clean and easy to read.

About the starburst eagle top shield badge

Starburst rays are the signature of this shield: they radiate from the seal across the middle of the badge, giving it the classic look of a command badge. The eagle crest sits close over the first ribbon, and the arched second ribbon follows the curve of the seal so a longer agency name fits without crowding.

The lower ribbon suits a department or division, and the plate at the bottom can carry a badge number or a row of rank stars. Design it in the TrueBadge Designer and buy at the tiered price shown, or request a quote and our art team sends a free proof within 4 hours for your approval.

Who orders this badge

Police chiefs, deputy chiefs and captains often wear starburst shields, so departments order this style for command ranks with stars in the base plate. Fire marshals and investigators use it too, because the rays keep attention on the seal while the ribbons carry title and agency.

Starburst eagle top shield badge questions

Can the bottom plate show rank stars instead of a number?

Yes. The 18-character base plate takes a badge number, short text or a row of stars for command ranks.

How much does this badge cost?

$160 for a single badge, $75 each at 10 and $50 each at 100 or more. Mold and setup are free. Finish upgrades are Background +$20, UV colored +$20 and Hard enamel +$25 per badge.

Do the starburst rays take color?

The rays are struck into the metal and follow your plating. Add a background color to the recessed areas if you want them to stand out more.

How long does production take?

Standard production is 8–14 weeks from artwork approval. Rush production is available; enter your date in the quote form and we quote the rush timing for your order.

Which panel holds the longest name?

The arched ribbon above the seal and the long ribbon below it each take up to 40 characters, as does the top ribbon under the eagle.

Can I put my own emblem in the seal?

Yes. Upload your logo or emblem; the seal well is about 27% of the face and we prepare the art for striking at no charge.

Where this badge fits in the lineup

If you are outfitting a department, compare layouts at badge styles for police departments. County offices working from a seal change should look at sheriff star and shield layouts. For a single badge on your own account, use individual duty badge styles.
