The Gilded Scallop was "Awarded soley by the Baroness"
I believe it is retired. Chrystal has an Award of the Gilded Serpent.

There is a text for the Raven's Heart...
I don't think there is one for the Talon

The Raven's Heart has a badge:
argent a raven's head sable maintaining
a heart gules

The Gilded Serpent (as well as the Scallop) are unregistered

I believe the talon has a badge...

The Raven's Heart and the Talon are both "consulting orders"
in that the holders of the awards have the ability/responsibility
to consult with the Principals (the B&B) on who the next should be.
The choice is that of the Principals

The Talon is (in my interpretation) for representing the Barony in
the Martial Arts throughout the Kingdom

The Raven's Heart is kind of like a Pelican... It is for people
who have gone above and beyond for many years in their service
to the Barony.
