Square national flag with a blue anchor placed horizontally pointing to the fly and a blue five-pointed star, both in the yellow stripe.

Album des Pavillons 2000 shows a segmented black-blue star. Album des Pavillons 1990 and other sources show a thinner anchor, may be a pre-1977 pattern?

Calvo and Grávalos 1983 and other sources show no changes in the width of the anchors in 1977 or otherwise. They always (even before 1931) appear to be quite 'thick', like on the image above. Also, the 1977 Decree shows the star as plain blue, not faceted.

The star appears faceted in Nueva Biblioteca de Legislación, published in Banderas, 1978, page 43.
