Frequently Asked Questions

Can you add one spot of color on a silver badge like this Rosebud design?

Yes. A single enamel accent on an otherwise silver badge draws the eye to the most important element. Here the seal disc is filled in red, but any color works, and the accent can go on the seal, the map, or a ribbon. You approve the color placement on a free proof before tooling.

Can the ribbon read CITY OF before the name like this?

Yes. The name ribbon can read CITY OF, TOWN OF, or VILLAGE OF followed by your community name, or just the name alone. Longer lines are spaced and sized to fit the ribbon cleanly on the proof.

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 map, star, red seal enamel, and two-texture field 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, silver plating, the red and black enamel fills, and hand-finishing of the star points and map edges.

Can each badge carry its own number like the 3403 here?

Yes. The base panel can carry an individual badge number for every officer, up to four or five digits, or a rank or unit name instead. The POLICE OFFICER ribbon re-letters to SERGEANT, CHIEF, or any title.

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.
