Description
The Milford Police Department serves a small town in southern Ellis County on the I-35E corridor between Waxahachie and Hillsboro. Its chief badge is a portrait piece: a gold star carrying a finely rendered image of a historic local building, framed by a star-spangled border that circles the entire badge.
Shape and Base: The badge is a silver oval ringed by a navy border band patterned with white stars over fine pinstripes — a flag-inspired frame that no other badge in this stretch of the gallery carries. Inside it, a pale silver field sets the stage for the center work.
Center Design: A large polished gold five-point star spans the field, and set into its center is a photographic-style rendering of a historic multi-story brick building with a central domed tower, reproduced in fine tonal detail. Etched imagery at this resolution turns a badge into a keepsake of the community it serves.
Banner Lettering: CHIEF crosses the crown on a gold ribbon in black block letters, MILFORD and POLICE stack on gold scrolls below the star, and a silver-edged TEXAS panel closes the base.
Tonal Detail: The palette holds silver for the oval and field, gold for the star and ribbon stack, navy for the star-spangled ring, and the sepia tones of the building image at dead center — a combination that reads formal from a distance and rewards a close look.
Finish Quality: Each badge is die-struck in solid metal, plated in two-tone silver and gold, enamel-filled at the border ring, and fitted with a pin-back and safety clasp. For the county counterpart from the same Ellis County courthouse, see the Ellis County Sheriff 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 you put a photograph of our own landmark on the star like this Milford design?
Yes. A clear photo of your courthouse, station, or historic building is all the artwork team needs — the image is converted into a fine tonal rendering and set into the star face, at the same level of detail shown here. You review the converted image on a free proof before any tooling begins.
Can you make the star-spangled border ring shown on this badge?
Yes. The navy band with white stars over pinstripes is enamel work built into the die, running the full circumference of the oval. It can also strike in black, red, or your department colors, or be replaced with a plain rope or wreath border if you prefer a quieter frame.
How much does a badge with a custom building image cost?
Estimated pricing runs from about $150 each at low quantities down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes, with no setup fee and no mold fee. The image conversion and the enamel border are included in that range, confirmed with a free quote.
What is the production timeline for this level of detail?
Approximately 8 to 14 weeks after proof approval. The building rendering is settled at the artwork stage, so the production window stays the same as any badge — die tooling, striking, two-tone plating, enamel filling, and hand inspection of the image detail.
Can the CHIEF ribbon and city scrolls be changed?
Yes. The crown ribbon accepts any rank or title, MILFORD and POLICE re-letter to your own city and agency, and the TEXAS panel swaps to your state. A department set can pair chief and officer versions from the same die with only the ribbon changing.
Do we need credentials to order a badge with a real city name on it?
Yes. Badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement and public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Fictional or fully customized designs with your own name are welcome without that step.
