About the 7 point star badge with ribbon
The two 48-character arcs on the ring are unusually long, so a full city or county name fits on the upper arc and the department on the lower arc without abbreviating. The top ribbon is a separate 36-character panel for rank.
Ball tips on every point are a mark of the traditional sheriff's and marshal's star. Design your star in the TrueBadge Designer and order it online, or request a quote and approve a free proof first.
