And attach a tag to it telling the crown what it is and when and
where it would be used. THEY will not automatically know all this
stuff that you just spent a week researching and it would be
embarrassing to give an Elizabethan token to a Viking. Make the tag
nice; they just might give it to the award recipient as well so
he/she can learn the significance of that piece of insignia as well.
