A possible Horcrux

[Deborah Hunt]

No: HPFGUIDX 138338

I agree. The award for special services is a very likely horcrux item.
1. It is enshrined at Hogwarts, possibly the first trophy Voldy every received.
2. It is well cared for, shined and kept pretty at Hogwarts, the safest place next to Gringotts.
3. Hogwarts is the place that Vold is fondest of (If he can be fond of anything)
4. Ron vomited slugs all over it.  It made him sick.  (Note also that Ron was very apprehensive about the diary as well, and the comment that the trophy was given for killing Moaning Myrtle.) This can be read that the Myrtle death fueled the Horcrux in the trophy. Also, Slugs - Slughorn.
