Bullion patches have a rich history, they’ve actually been worn by kings and queens in the past, and are also commonly worn as ceremonial patches in the military today. Made out of gold and silver bullion wire which is then hand-stitched into the patch material, bullion patches give off a shiny, eye-catching appeal that no other patch style can match.
