Texas Rangers Co. D Peso Back Badge story inside the box's packaging:
After the Civil War one of the biggest threats to the citizens of Texas was its lawlessness from within and criminal elements entering from Mexico and surrounding states. In 1874, the Legislature created two Ranger forces... the Frontier Battalion and Special Forces.
The Frontier Battalion lasted 27 years and was dissolved in 1901. During this turbulent period of time the Rangers were involved in some of the most celebrated cases in the history of the state, leading to historical facts that would later be mixed with Ranger legend.
Each high quality Old West replica badge is crafted out of brass and steel. They are double-stamped then silver plated. Next, each Old West replica badge is individually hand finished for a unique antique look. Bar pin style back.
Each badge is packaged in an old-fashioned style Kraft box with a story inside.
Size: approx. 1 5/8" H
