Union of South Africa King's Medal for Bravery, Gold
The Union of South Africa King's Medal for Bravery, Gold was the highest South African civilian decoration during the period between 1910 and 1961, when the country was a constitutional monarchy in the British Commonwealth. The medal was instituted by King George VI on 23 June 1939.
==Institution==
The Union of South Africa King's Medal for Bravery, Gold, the senior of two classes of South Africa's highest civilian decoration for bravery, was instituted by Royal Warrant of 23 June 1939, published in Government Gazette no. 2671 dated 25 August 1939, and amended by Royal Warrants of 18 February 1947, 24 October 1949 and 17 October 1950.〔
The medal is unique insofar, at the time it was instituted, there was no equivalent British award. It predated the institution of the George Cross and George Medal in 1940 and, since South Africans were not eligible for the award of these latter two decorations, the Union of South Africa King's Medal for Bravery, Gold was not superseded by them.〔
