Welcome to my website.  My name is Billy Thompson and I am a retired detective from the Richmond City Police Department in Virginia. I currently work as a Special Agent with the Office of Law Enforcement Services at the Virginia Department of Corrections. I have been collecting Virginia Law Enforcement Memorabilia for over 30 years. I hope you enjoy viewing some of the items that I have collected. 

I dedicate this site to two salt of the earth collectors who were instrumental in my collecting endeavors throughout the years and have since passed away. Those two are Danny Hughes, retired United States Capitol Police Officer and David L. Martin, retired Captain, Richmond City Police Department.

Preserving a proud legacy

Every patch, badge, and coin on RichmondCityLimits tells a story of dedication, service, and the evolving face of law enforcement in the Commonwealth. I am  committed to honoring the legacy of Virginia's first responders by providing a platform for collectors to view and appreciate these historical artifacts. Thank You to everyone who has helped me in the past, present and moving towards the future!
