Description
The Los Alamitos Police Department serves Los Alamitos, a small city in Orange County, California, near the Los Angeles County line. This badge sets the city seal over a struck outline of the state.
Shape & Base: A brushed silver oval forms the body of the badge, edged with a raised rim and marked with a small silver X at the top edge and the bottom point. A radiating sunburst fans across the upper field behind the seal, and a stippled silver panel fills the lower field beneath the banners.
Center: A silver California state outline is struck in relief across the middle of the badge, standing proud of the sunburst behind it. A circular medallion sits over the outline: its dark blue enamel ring band carries raised gold lettering reading CITY OF LOS ALAMITOS around the circumference, and inside runs a full-color scene with a green tree at center against a pale ground, a United States flag at upper right, a red and gold Spanish flag at left, a third flag at right, and a small brown structure at the base.
Banner Lettering: A gold scroll ribbon with folded, notched ends arcs across the top of the badge reading POLICE OFFICER in large raised blue letters, and a second gold scroll below the seal reads LOS ALAMITOS POLICE. A gold rectangular plaque with a raised border closes the base, struck blank rather than numbered.
Tonal Detail: The badge splits between two metals. Brushed silver carries the oval body, the rim, the sunburst, the stippled panel, and the state outline, while polished gold carries the banners, the seal ring, and the base plaque. Blue enamel is held to the banner lettering and the seal ring band, and full color appears only inside the medallion, so the state shape reads as raised silver rather than as a colored map.
Finish Quality: Using the state outline as a struck shape rather than a seal detail is what makes this badge unusual: it gives the center a silhouette to sit against without adding a third color, and the sunburst behind it keeps the silver from going flat. The seal is struck fine enough to hold three flags and the tree at the diameter it sits at. For another two-tone oval badge with a struck center element, see the Nampa Police Officer 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 Los Alamitos Police design?
Yes. Owl Badges produces die-struck metal badges for police departments nationwide. This oval sunburst style can be ordered as shown, or the seal, the state outline, and the banner text can be changed to your own city and state. There is no setup fee and no mold fee.
Can you strike a state outline into a badge as a background shape?
Yes. The California outline here is struck as raised silver behind the seal rather than drawn inside it, which gives the center a silhouette to sit against without adding another color. We can cut any state, county, or district outline the same way and set your seal over it.
Can you leave the base plaque blank or add badge numbers to it?
Either works. The plaque on this badge is struck blank with a raised border. We can leave it that way, engrave a rank or unit into it, or number each piece in your order individually. Send the numbering with your order and it will appear on your proof.
How long does production take for a badge like this?
Custom metal badges take approximately 8 to 14 weeks after proof approval, covering tooling, striking, plating, and finishing. A two-tone badge with a struck state outline, two field textures, and a multi-color seal sits toward the longer end of that window. Your design is confirmed on a free proof before any tooling is cut.
How much does a custom metal badge like this cost?
Estimated pricing runs from about $150 each at single quantities down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes, with no setup fee and no mold fee. Two-tone plating and a layered center place a badge like this at the detailed end of the range. Final pricing is confirmed with a free quote.
Do I need credentials to order a badge with the Los Alamitos Police name on it?
Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency name — including the Los Alamitos Police Department — are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives, and require proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter. If you change the seal and department name to your own, no credentials are needed.
