About the eagle top badge with circle center

Wrapping the lettering around the seal instead of stacking it on ribbons lets this narrow shield keep a large seal well, about 43% of the face. The slim shape fits well in a compact wallet and suits detectives and investigators who carry a badge rather than wear it.

Use the top arch for a title, the two long curves for the department and city, and the base for the number. Design it in the TrueBadge Designer and order online, or request a quote and get a free artwork proof within 4 hours.
