I noticed something just now.
I used to be a Texas Licensed Private Investigator too.

I Googled Texas CHL badge.
Many CHL Badges have the Great Seal of the State of Texas on them.
The Private Investigator firm had to get rid of all badges with the Great Seal on them. The Great Seal was replaced with Scales of Justice ...

We were told that's a no-no, though I never looked it up in the Statutes/Codes

I know the USA has regulations regarding the use of their Seal

18 USC 713 - Use of likenesses of the great seal of the United States, the seals of the President and Vice President, the seal of the United States Senate, the seal of the United States House of Representatives, and the seal of the United States Congress

and

Bill forbidding advertisers to use the Great Seal of Texas has been approved by flie of Representatives in Austin.

I'll look for Texas later maybe, but quickly found:
officeholder, may not use the Great Seal of Texas in a political advertisement. Penalty: Class A misdemeanor. Reference: Election Code, § 255.006. E

Having the Great Seal on them might be more evidence of impersonating an officer, if not a crime in itself.
I'd have to research more, but it's not a priority for me now.
