About the classic eagle top shield badge
The traditional notched shield and simple line border give this badge an old-school department look, and the oversized seal is its standout feature. At 2.05" × 2.95" it's smaller than our full-size shields, which suits hat badges, plain-clothes wallets and smaller uniform pockets.
Put a title in the top panel, the department in the arc over the seal, a city below and a number at the base. Order at the live price in the TrueBadge Designer, or request a quote and approve your free proof before anything is struck.
