Frequently Asked Questions

What is shown on the Arizona Department of Corrections patch?

The patch is a black pointed shield with a gold border. ARIZONA, DEPARTMENT OF, and CORRECTIONS are stacked in gold across the top, and the Great Seal of the State of Arizona sits below, ringed with the seal text and the 1912 statehood date.

What is shown on the Great Seal of Arizona?

The seal shows the symbols of Arizona industry: mountains with a rising sun, a reservoir and dam, a quartz mill and miner, grazing cattle, and irrigated fields. The Latin motto Ditat Deus, meaning God enriches, appears across the top of the seal.

Why does the patch show the date 1912?

Arizona became the 48th state on February 14, 1912, and that date is part of the official state seal. It appears on the patch exactly as it does on the seal itself.

Can you make a custom shield patch like this for our agency?

Yes. A pointed shield with stacked lettering and a central state seal is a flexible template. Our artwork team can swap the seal, name, colors, and border to match your department, with a free proof before production.

How much does a patch like this cost, and what is the minimum order?

Estimated pricing runs from about $17 each at 10 units down to roughly $2 each at 1,000 units, with no setup or mold fee. The minimum order starts as low as 10 pieces, so smaller runs for specialty units are welcome.

Do I need credentials to order a patch with the Arizona Department of Corrections name on it?

Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as the Arizona Department of Corrections are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Corrections, law-enforcement, and public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or renamed designs are welcome without that step.
