what exactly does this mean?

sorry should have put more context - what does this mean in this day and age?
It's an Honour in the personal gift of the Queen, bestowed on persons of Rank as a mark of gratitude and esteem.
It's the highest award in our honours system.
I meant to add, Recipients of the honour are chosen because they have held public office, contributed to national life or served the Sovereign personally.
