prize

Winner's earned glory

Prize centers on something of value worth pursuing or possessing.

A prize is an award given for achievement or victory: She won first prize in the competition.

It can be anything captured or seized, especially in war—a prize ship, prize money.

As an adjective, prize means outstanding or worthy of a prize: a prize specimen, prize cattle.

To prize something is to value it highly: I prize these letters from my grandmother.

A prized possession is one you treasure.
