Frequently Asked Questions

What is shown on the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office patch?

The patch is shaped as a gold six-point star with a brown border. A SHERIFF scroll arches across the top and a MARICOPA COUNTY scroll curves across the bottom, both in brown lettering. At the center is a circular medallion holding the Great Seal of Arizona. Owl Badges reproduces it as an embroidered shoulder patch.

What is the seal in the center of the Maricopa County Sheriff patch?

It is the Great Seal of the State of Arizona, set in a blue ring lettered GREAT SEAL OF THE STATE OF ARIZONA with the date 1912. The scene shows mountains with the sun rising behind them, a quartz mill and miner, fields and orchards, and a reservoir, with the state motto DITAT DEUS on a banner across the middle. We reproduce the medallion and its colors in detailed stitching.

What does DITAT DEUS mean on the Maricopa County Sheriff patch?

DITAT DEUS is the Arizona state motto, Latin for God enriches, and it appears on a banner across the middle of the Great Seal of Arizona at the center of the patch. The 1912 date in the ring marks the year Arizona became a state. We reproduce the motto, date, and seal exactly as they appear.

Can you make a star-shaped sheriff patch with a state seal like this?

Yes. A six-point star badge with a SHERIFF scroll across the top, a state or county seal at the center, and the county name on a scroll below is a classic badge layout, and we can adapt it for your own office or department - your seal at the center, your county name, and your colors, in a star or shield shape. A free proof is provided before production so you can confirm every detail.

What size is the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office patch?

Shoulder patches like this are typically made in the 4 to 5 inch range so the SHERIFF and MARICOPA COUNTY scrolls and the Great Seal of Arizona stay legible on a uniform sleeve. Because the seal scene and the DITAT DEUS motto carry fine detail, we confirm the proportions at your chosen size on the free proof so everything stays crisp.

Do I need credentials to order a patch with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office name on it?

Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office 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. Custom or fictional department designs, and patches renamed to your own department, are welcome without that step.
