Award for bravery or achievement (5)

I believe the answer is:

medal

(Other definitions for medal that I've seen before include "Prize; sounds like interfere" , "Small metal disc as reward or prize" , "Award for the soldier" , "Piece of metal as award or in commemoration" , "Award for merit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
