46 star flag.
I have one My father gave me last year. My Grandfather was the original owner.
I have been told the value is directly related to the condition, the way it was made, and how old it is.
I have been told my flag in good condition is worth about $2,000 but it may not be true.
If anyone has any more suggestions please let us know!!!
It's clear that there's never been an official 47-stars flag of the United States. New Mexico became the 47th state on 6 January 1912, but since the United States only adopts new flags on the 4th of July, the addition of Arizona as the 48th state changed the number of stars again before a new flag was adopted.
Of course, for a new flag to be flown at the 4th of July flag, manufacturers have to make the flags before those are official. In some cases a state was added so close to the 4th of July, that manufacturers had already begun making flags that were never to be. But since Arizona gained statehood on 14 February 1912 this apparently did not happen for the 47 star flag.
The 47 star flag is a rare item. Still, it's not completely unique. Apparently some people did make such flags, what ever their reasons for doing so may have been. Doing some quick internet research gave me the following list: * The Tularosa Basin Historical Society Museum has one such flag, with staggered rows of 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, and 7 stars. * The Palace of the Governors in Santa Fe has a 47-star flag. * Fort McHenry Monument and Historic Shine apparently also has such a flag. As you can see, the publically know 47-star flags can be counted on the fingers of one hand. I only found a photograph of the first one, though, and I don't know the patterns of the stars on the other flags.
Most flags appear to be in or near New Mexico, which probably means they were made by people from New Mexico who wanted to demonstrate their pride in gaining statehood.
Since there is no OFFICIAL U.S. 47 star flag and the known editions vary, one person could say it`s worthless and another priceless.
You forgot a star. Lolz. About 150 dollars
How much is a 46 star flag worth
the is one star for each union on the flag
With the Star field on the left
The star that represents Texas is located in the far right vertical column. It is the star that is 2nd from the top. If you draw a rectangle shape with that particular star being on the left side of the rectangle, you will find that the Texas flag will appear within that rectangle. The Texas flag is always flying when a U.S. flag is flying. The Texas flag just happens to blend in to the U.S. flag until you place a rectangle around it. The Texas flag is the only state flag that is allowed to fly within the U.S. Flag.
i believe it was 5 or 15
Most likely it is a flag that was in use from 1907 to 1911. The 46th star was added to the US flag when Oklahoma became a state. In 1911 and 1912 Arizona and New Mexico became states and the 47th and 48th stars were added. The US flag stayed at 48 stars until Alaska and Hawaii were admitted to the union becomming the 49th and 50th star on the flag

The US adapted its fifty star version of the national flag in the year of 1960. The exact date that the United States 50-star flag was adapted was on July 4, 1960.
yes, each of the 50 states are represented by 1 star on the US flag
On the US flag, every star stands for a state.
