A graceful difference labeling (gdl for short) of a directed graph \(G\) with vertex set \(V\) is a bijection \(f:V\rightarrow\{1,\ldots,\vert V\vert\}\) such that, when each arc \(uv\) is assigned the difference label \(f(v)-f(u)\), the resulting arc labels are distinct. We conjecture that all disjoint unions of circuits have a gdl, except in two particular cases. We prove partial results which support this conjecture.
