Frequently Asked Questions

Can you make the sunburst break past the edge of the badge like this Nash design?

Yes. The spiked sunburst is struck as part of the badge silhouette itself, so the points extend beyond the oval rim at the crown and base rather than stopping inside it. The artwork team can set the spike count, length, and spread to your preference, shown exactly on a free proof before tooling.

Can the star be made this large on our badge?

Yes. A full-face star reaching nearly rim to rim is a deliberate proportion choice, and the die is drawn to whatever balance you want — a dominant star like this one, or a smaller star that leaves more field showing. The rope circle behind the points scales with it.

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 oversized star, rope detail, and sunburst silhouette 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, two-tone plating, the red seal enamel, and hand-finishing of the sunburst points and rope work.

Can the silver bands be re-lettered for our own department?

Yes. NASH on the crown re-letters to your own city, POLICE OFFICER accepts any rank or agency wording, and TEXAS swaps to your state — and the bands can also strike in gold if you prefer a matched-metal look. All lettering is confirmed on the proof.

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.
