Frequently Asked Questions

Can you put a landmark building on our badge like this Richmond design?

Yes. Our artwork team redraws your building as an architectural relief, working from photos to capture its windows, roofline, and tower in raised metal. The relief is sculpted into the die, and you approve the detail on a free proof before tooling.

Can the ray field be changed or removed?

Yes. The sunburst rays can be kept as shown, replaced with a plain or textured field, or swapped for a pebbled finish. Rays add movement and catch light around the building, while a plain field makes the relief stand out more sharply.

What does a badge like this 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 building relief, seal disc, and ray field are all included in that range, confirmed with a free quote.

How long does production take?

Approximately 8 to 14 weeks after proof approval, covering die tooling, striking in solid metal, gold plating, the black lettering fill, and hand-finishing of the building relief and rays.

Can the OFFICER ribbon carry a different rank?

Yes. The top ribbon can read SERGEANT, LIEUTENANT, CAPTAIN, CHIEF, or any title, and the RICHMOND and POLICE bands re-letter to your own city and agency. The seal disc can hold your state seal or a city emblem instead.

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.
