| - The flag of Raleigh is the official municipal flag of Raleigh, North Carolina. It is perhaps the only American city flag to feature different designs on the obverse and reverse. Both sides feature a similar red-white-red vertical triband with an emblem in the center. The obverse features the Seal of Raleigh. The reverse has a modified version of the coat of arms of Sir Walter Raleigh. The initial design of the flag was created in October 1899, though the idea was first proposed in April of that year. It was supposed to be given to the USS Raleigh (C-8); however, the ship was decommissioned before it could receive it. While the ship was commissioned again in the future, it is not known if the flag made it on board. One of the original flags was found in city storage in 1960. After modifications to the design were made, it was readopted as the city flag of Raleigh on April 25 of that year and has remained since. (en)
