The Gibraltar Medallion of Distinction (GMD) is a civil award scheme established by the Parliament of the British overseas territory of Gibraltar.
Award
The Gibraltar Medallion of Distinction was created by a motion of the Gibraltar Parliament on the 29 July 2011 and is awarded annually by the Parliament to "living or deceased persons who have attained distinction in any event, activity, aspect of life or subject matter and have thereby made an exceptional contribution to the community which Parliament considers worthy of special recognition". The award entitles the recipient to use the post-nominal letters GMD.{{cite web |title=Gibraltar Parliament Hansard 2011 |url=https://www.parliament.gi/uploads/contents/hansard/hansard_2011/consolidated/consolidated_hansard_2011.pdf |website=Gibraltar Parliament |access-date=30 May 2024 |ref=gib_hansard_2011}}{{cite web |title=HM Government of Gibraltar Press Release 391/2014 |url=https://www.gibraltar.gov.gi/new/sites/default/files/press/2014/Press%20Releases/391.pdf |website=HM Government of Gibraltar |access-date=30 May 2024}}{{cite news |title=Four years later, David Liston finally receives his Gibraltar Medallion of Distinction |url=https://www.chronicle.gi/four-years-later-david-liston-finally-receives-his-gibraltar-medallion-of-distinction/ |access-date=30 May 2024 |publisher=Gibraltar Chronicle |date=14 June 2023}}{{cite news |title=VIDEO: Parliament bestows four Medallions of Honour |url=https://www.gbc.gi/news/video-parliament-bestows-four-medallions-honour-25256 |access-date=30 May 2024 |work=Gibraltar Broadcasting Corporation |publisher=Gibraltar Broadcasting Corporation |date=12 September 2014 |language=en}}{{cite web |title=Professors Clive and Geraldine Finlayson awarded the Gibraltar Medallion of Distinction |url=https://www.gorhamscave.gi/news/professors-clive-and-geraldine-finlayson-awarded-the-gibraltar-medallion-of-distinction-31 |website=Gorham´s Cave Complex |access-date=30 May 2024 |language=en}}
