The Royal Victorian Order - Royal Victorian Medal Previous/Next Award

The Royal Victorian Order was founded in 1896 by Queen Victoria to give recognition to those who have rendered outstanding service to the Sovereign or to the Royal Family. The awards are in the personal gift of the Sovereign.

The Order has one division with five classes of awards including a Medal of the Order.

Although most traditional awards are no longer available to Australians, the Royal Victorian Order continues to be available and may be made following a Royal Visit to Australia or in acknowledgment of exceptional service to Vice Regal representatives.
