Description
This metal badge features the Howe Police Department insignia, serving the city of Howe, Texas, in Grayson County on US 75 between Sherman and McKinney. It is a five-point star badge struck in polished gold, its arms worked in foliate relief against darkened fields and its center given over to the state map.
Shape & Base: The badge is die-struck as a broad five-point star with the top point rising above the center disc and finishing in a fleur-de-lis finial. Each arm carries a foliate scroll ornament in relief set against a dark antiqued field.
Crown Banner: A gold banner with folded ends arcs across the upper star carrying CHIEF in black-filled capitals, seated just below the raised top point.
Ring Lettering: A raised gold ring circles the center with HOWE POLICE arcing above and DEPARTMENT below in black-filled capitals, with a small dot set into the ring at each side where the two arcs meet.
Center: A gold Texas state map sits in relief on a dark recessed disc, with a black star struck into the map to mark the city’s place in the state.
Rank & Finish Quality: The CHIEF banner takes any rank. The badge carries no color enamel — polished gold, darkened recesses and black fill do all the work, with the antiqued fields throwing the foliate arms into relief. Every element is die-struck for crisp definition and sealed for daily duty wear. For another design from the same county, see the Grayson 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 I order a star badge with an antiqued finish like this Howe design?
Yes. This Howe Police badge darkens the recessed fields behind its foliate arms so the polished gold relief stands off them. That antiqued contrast is applied during finishing and can be reproduced exactly, lightened, or dropped for an all-bright badge.
Can you change the fleur-de-lis finial and star arms?
Yes. The finial on the raised top point can stay as shown, be simplified to a plain point, or be replaced with a ball tip or department emblem, and the foliate scrolls on the five arms can be kept, changed, or left plain.
Can you change the state map and location star?
Yes. The gold Texas map filling the center disc can be replaced with your own state outline, and the black star marking Howe can be moved to your city. The map can also be swapped for a seal or emblem entirely.
Can the rank banner and ring lettering be customized?
Yes. The CHIEF banner takes any rank, and HOWE POLICE and DEPARTMENT on the center ring take your own agency wording. You receive a free proof before any tooling or production begins.
How much does a custom metal badge like this cost?
Estimated pricing ranges from about $150 each at low quantities down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes. There is no setup fee and no mold fee, and there is a low minimum order — a short run suits a department the size of Howe’s.
Do I need credentials to order a Howe Police badge?
Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency name such as the Howe Police Department are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production. Custom or renamed designs for your own department are welcome without that step.
