Description
This metal badge features the DeSoto Police Department insignia, serving the city of DeSoto, Texas, in southern Dallas County. It is a two-tone oval badge with a silver body and blue enamel banners, built around a Texas map filled with the state flag and laid over a large gold star, with a gold eagle in flight diving across the map.
Shape & Base: The badge is die-struck as an upright oval with a lined silver rim, small X-shaped accents at the top and sides, and a face cut as a radiating sunburst with fine lines fanning outward from behind the star. A gold plate closes the base beneath the banners.
Center: A large gold five-point star fills the heart of the oval, and an outline of Texas filled with the state flag in enamel is laid over it, the blue canton and white star at the left with the white and red bands to the right. A gold eagle in full flight crosses the map with wings spread and talons reaching forward, its inner wing feathers picked out in red enamel.
Ring & Banner Lettering: DESOTO arcs across a blue enamel banner at the top of the oval in gold letters, with the banner ends folding back at each side. Two more blue enamel banners across the lower oval read POLICE and DEPARTMENT in the same gold lettering, and the gold plate at the base reads TX in black fill.
Enamel & Tonal Detail: Blue enamel fills the three banners, the flag colors fill the map, and red picks out the eagle’s wings, with no seal anywhere on the piece. The two-tone split puts the star, the eagle, the banner lettering and the plate in gold against the silver rim and sunburst, so the blue banners frame a gold-and-flag center.
Finish Quality: Die-struck in solid metal with two-tone silver and gold plating, hand-finished so the eagle feathers stay distinct against the flag enamel and the gold lettering reads sharply on every blue banner. For the neighboring city police department in the same county, see the Cedar Hill Police badge.

🛡 Authorized Purchase & Credential Verification
Badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement and public-safety buyers must provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. We do not sell agency-named badges for personal use.
Custom and fictional designs — for example, a made-up department like “Town of Western Hope Police” — are welcome, as are designs where you change the agency or department name to your own.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order a custom metal badge like the DeSoto Police design?
Yes. Owl Badges produces custom die-struck metal badges for police departments, sheriff’s offices, and constable offices nationwide. You can order this two-tone oval style as shown or change the eagle, the map, the banner color and wording, and the plating split to fit your own department. Badges carrying a real agency name require credential verification before production.
What is the minimum order for a police badge like this?
There is a low minimum order. Single badges are available for individual officers, and per-piece pricing drops sharply as quantity rises, which makes larger runs practical for an entire department or a promotion cycle at once.
Can the flying eagle be changed or moved?
Yes. The eagle on this badge is struck in full flight across the map rather than perched at the top, with red enamel picking out its inner wings. We can keep it in flight, move it to a crest position above the banner, run it without the red accents, or replace it with a state or city emblem in the same position.
How much does a custom metal badge like this cost?
Estimated pricing runs from about $150 each at a single piece down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes. There is no setup fee and no mold fee. Final pricing depends on the finished design, size, and quantity, and is confirmed with a free quote.
How long does production take?
Approximately 8 to 14 weeks for tooling, striking, enamel fill, plating, and finishing after your proof is approved. The three blue banners, the flag map and the red wing accents are filled in separate passes and leveled together before the two-tone plating is masked and applied.
Do I need credentials to order a badge with the DeSoto Police name on it?
Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. DeSoto police buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or fictional department designs, and designs where you substitute your own agency name, are welcome without that step.
