Description
The Princeton Police Department serves Princeton, a city in Collin County in North Texas, northeast of Dallas along US Highway 380. This badge carries the Texas state seal at the center of a gold star.
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. A radiating sunburst fans across the field behind the star, giving the gold a textured silver ground to sit against.
Center: A large polished gold five-point star lies across the middle of the badge with its arms left plain. At its heart sits a circular medallion: a black enamel ring band carries raised gold lettering reading STATE OF across the top and TEXAS across the bottom, and inside it the Texas state seal is struck in gold, a five-point star wreathed in olive and live oak branches against a black field. A small gold scroll ornament with curled ends sits below the star, carrying a struck filigree pattern rather than lettering.
Banner Lettering: Three black enamel banners with gold frames carry the text. An arc banner curves across the top of the oval reading POLICE OFFICER in large raised gold letters. A scroll ribbon with folded, notched ends sits below the star reading POLICE, and a curved band follows the bottom edge of the oval reading PRINCETON.
Enamel Detail: This badge uses one enamel color rather than a full palette. Black fills all three banners and the seal ring band, so every letter reads as raised gold against a dark field, and the seal star and wreath sit against the same black. There are no color enamel fields anywhere else on the piece.
Finish Quality: The silver-to-gold split does the work here: brushed silver holds the oval, the rim, and the sunburst, while polished gold carries the star, the seal, the scroll ornament, the banner frames, and every letter. The sunburst is struck fine enough to fan behind the star without competing with it, and the seal holds the wreath branches cleanly at badge scale. For another two-tone oval badge with a struck center emblem, see the Brigham City 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 Princeton 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 star, and the banner text can be changed to your own department details. There is no setup fee and no mold fee.
Can you set a gold star over a silver oval like this badge?
Yes. The two-tone split here puts polished gold on the star, the seal, and the banner frames while the oval, rim, and sunburst stay brushed silver, which is what makes the star read as a separate element rather than a shape stamped into the face. We can reverse the tones, run the badge in a single finish, or split it differently.
Can you reproduce a state seal like the Texas seal on this badge?
Yes. The medallion here carries the Texas seal struck in gold against black enamel, with the wreathed star holding its olive and live oak branches at badge scale. We can reproduce a state, county, or municipal seal the same way from artwork you supply. Agencies are responsible for confirming they are authorized to use a given state seal on their badges.
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 sunburst, three enamel banners, and a seal medallion 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 struck seal place a badge like this at the detailed end of the range, even with a single enamel color. Final pricing is confirmed with a free quote.
Do I need credentials to order a badge with the Princeton Police name on it?
Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency name — including the Princeton 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.
