While in the past many crowns have allowed Baronial service awards to be
given without their signature or their prior approval in some cases, it is
strictly a matter decided by each crown. The AOA that accompanies a
Baronial service award (if the recipient doesn't already have one) is from
the Crown not the TB. In these cases I would suspect that the Crown would
require prior notification and approval. A Crown could, if it wanted to,
be involved in every award given in the Kingdom.
