"Actually the trivia point does confirm this. How else would you interpret this?"

It's a tweet. Replying with a general yes doesn't mean that all parts of a preceeding question should be taken as the gospel truth. Harvey's reply only explicitly confirms the medal was Corvo's and that the City Watch took it.

But if you really want me to expound on this: If "it was supposed to be given to him upon his return", (nevermind that Commendation Medals usually require combat action to be awarded, not going on a diplomatic cruise) and Corvo didn't actually have it yet, how and why did it end up in Coldridge at all?

It makes a whole lot more sense that Corvo was carrying it on his person, and that he got it from some unspecified military action earlier.
