Frequently Asked Questions

Can you set our seal on an ornate scrolled mount like this Quitman badge?

Yes. The gold mount of curling leafwork is sculpted into the die around the seal, so the seal sits in a raised, jewelry-like setting rather than flat on the field. The scrollwork can be more or less ornate, and you approve the mount design on a free proof before tooling.

Can the seal be our city seal instead of the state seal?

Yes. The medallion carries any seal in full color, whether state, city, or county, and the scrolled mount adapts to its size. A clean image or vector of your seal is all the artwork team needs.

What does a chief 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 scrolled mount, laurel rim, and full-color seal 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 seal enamel fill, and hand-finishing of the scrollwork and laurel relief.

Can other ranks use this design?

Yes. CHIEF on the crown re-letters to OFFICER, SERGEANT, LIEUTENANT, or any title, QUITMAN and POLICE DEPARTMENT re-letter to your own city and agency, and the TEXAS panel swaps to your state or a badge number.

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.
