Precedence in Each Realm
Some orders of precedence are as follows:
| Country | Preceding | Following |
| Canada |
125th Anniversary of the Confederation of Canada Medal | Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal |
| New Zealand |
Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee Medal | New Zealand 1990 Commemoration Medal |
| United Kingdom |
Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee Medal | Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal |
The medal was not awarded by New Zealand. However, it was accorded a place in the country's order of wear to accommodate British citizens who had received the medal in the UK and subsequently joined the New Zealand Defence Force.

Famous quotes containing the words precedence and/or realm:
“It is difficult to separate the tapestry
From the room or loom which takes precedence over it.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“War. Fighting. Men ... every man in the whole realm is in the army.... Every man in uniform ... An economy entirely geared to war ... but there is not much war ... hardly any fighting ... yet every man a soldier from birth till death ... Men ... all men for fighting ... but no war, no wars to fight ... what is it, what does it mean?””
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
