Description
The San Benito Police Department serves a Rio Grande Valley city in Cameron County, set along the Arroyo Colorado between Harlingen and Brownsville. Its chief badge wraps a red and blue state seal in gold ribbons, framed by a silver oval with a twisted rope border.
Shape and Base: The badge is a silver oval edged with a twisted rope border and small crossed studs, its face struck with fine rays fanning from the center. POLICE crosses the top on a broad gold ribbon, and CHIEF follows on a second gold ribbon just beneath it, both in bold black block letters.
Center Design: A seal disc sits at the heart of the oval with a red enamel ring lettered STATE OF TEXAS, framing a blue center that holds a silver star within a silver wreath. The disc rests on a sculpted gold leaf mount that spreads out behind it.
Banner Lettering: SAN BENITO crosses a wide gold ribbon beneath the seal, and a gold scrolled panel at the base reads TEXAS, both in bold black block letters.
Tonal Detail: Silver carries the oval, rope border, and rays while gold takes the ribbons, leaf mount, and base panel, and the red ring and blue center give the seal its color — a formal chief badge with the seal as its clear focal point.
Finish Quality: Each badge is die-struck in solid metal, plated in two-tone silver and gold, filled with red and blue enamel at the seal and black enamel at the lettering, and fitted with a pin-back and safety clasp. For the county lawman from the same Cameron County courthouse, see the Cameron County Sheriff 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 you give our badge a rope border like this San Benito design?
Yes. A twisted rope border is struck around the full oval rim in raised relief, giving the edge a braided texture that catches light. It can be paired with crossed studs as shown or left plain, and you approve the border on a free proof before tooling.
What is the gold leaf mount behind the seal?
The leaf mount is a sculpted spray of gold leaves that sits behind the seal disc and spreads toward the ribbons, lifting the seal off the field. It can be kept, replaced with a wreath, or removed for a flatter center.
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 rope border, leaf mount, and red and blue seal enamel 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, blue, and black enamel fills, and hand-finishing of the rope border and leaf mount.
Can the CHIEF ribbon carry a different rank?
Yes. The second ribbon can read OFFICER, SERGEANT, LIEUTENANT, CAPTAIN, or any title, and SAN BENITO re-letters to your own city. The TEXAS panel can hold a badge number instead.
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.
